Keep Steppin'

I got a new pedometer, stepometer, calorie meter, kilometer, milage counter today. I'm hoping that this will entice me to walk more, exercise more, become a slim person. I just love that word and have always dreamed of what it'd be like to be called "slim." She's so "slim." What a thought. I've now been home for a few hours and already have 116 steps under my belt. The pamphlet says something about 10,000 steps a day. This is an ideal goal for walking per day. I'll gage where I am to start with and go from there. Baby steps. Yes, and I have a short stride, so I'll have to see if it says something about doubling the number if you have short steps!!!! I can walk for half of what it says. I'm on my way to sheer fitness. I've checked going upstairs, (only half credit for that), so that's another doubling factor. I haven't actually gone on a walk yet but I do plan to. Really!!!! I'll be off the charts if I do since my 116 steps were just home on the computer playing Cafe Town and Making a Taco Chili Dinner.
