I want to get back into shape... as in my college or even better highschool weight. </p> <p>but dang, that's a lot of walking. good for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157574 Mon, 14 May 2012 08:01:20 +0000 mrbee 157574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Yah or there's a wristband you can put it on too... comes with the unit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157569 Mon, 14 May 2012 07:57:03 +0000 mediagirl 157569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. Now that we don't live in a walking city and I'm not walking in my commute to work, I know I walk very, VERY little. It's probably depressing if I were to really pay attention to it. I'm impressed you went up and down your staircase 16 times in one day, @mrbee!! </p> <p>I may consider getting one of these for both of us when our lo is born so we can make sure we're getting enough exercise and getting her outside and playing and running around.</p> <p>ETA: how do you wear it to bed? Clip it on your shorts or something? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157472 Mon, 14 May 2012 06:38:20 +0000 mrbee 157472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: The Fitbit Ultra!<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Fitbit-Wireless-Activity-Sleep-Tracker/dp/B005PUONIK" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Fitbit-Wireless-Activity-Sleep-Tracker/dp/B005PUONIK</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157471 Mon, 14 May 2012 06:36:16 +0000 hellobeeboston 157471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Which pedometer do you have?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157458 Mon, 14 May 2012 06:00:21 +0000 pastemoo 157458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Huh. When I used to work at a restaurant, I'd walk 5 miles per shift. :)<br /> I don't wear a pedometer anymore--though yours sounds pretty cool! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157444 Mon, 14 May 2012 05:13:23 +0000 hellobeeboston 157444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I should get a pedometer to see how far I actually walk -- I do a lot of walking for my commute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157409 Sun, 13 May 2012 22:13:29 +0000 chopsuey 157409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DANG! I don't walk as much since we don't live in a walking city! I'm scared to get a pedometer.. I did walk 1.5 miles on Saturday around the track. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-fit-wearing-a-pedometer#post-157407 Sun, 13 May 2012 22:11:06 +0000 mrbee 157407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got the results of my first full day wearing the Fitbit Ultra apedometer!</p> <p>* 11678 steps taken today<br /> * 16 floors climbed today (this just means that I climbed our staircase 16 times)<br /> * 5.2 miles traveled today<br /> * 2891 calories burned</p> <p>I didn't realize that being a parent was so much exercise!</p> <p>Half of those miles was carrying a 28 pound Charlie... I feel like I should get extra credit for those haha! I was happy I walked 10k feet, but apparently some people walk much more. Dang, that's a lot of walking!</p> <p>How much (and how far) do you walk a day? </p>
