since mid july, i have been using a fitbit charge hr. the device is worn like a watch. it show the time, steps taken a day, miles walked, heart rate, calories burned, flights of stairs, and alarms. there is also an app you can download on your phone/ipad that can track your food intake, your workouts and how effective they are, monitor your sleep, and tells you when you need to charge your fitbit’s battery. all in all, it’s amazzzzing!
i have been trying to set a goal for myself of 10,000 steps per day which roughly translates to 5 miles a day. if i do this for one month, anson will take me up to sf and we’ll get to go to the exploratorium! we’ll probably also splurge on a nice dinner since we’re saving $30/person since we’ll be using james and char’s free museum tickets 🙂 hope to set a goal every month, but the prize doesn’t always have to be going somewhere grand. sometimes, it can be a weekend trip, but others, maybe just a day thing in san jose. anyways, it’s been working for the last 3 weeks. keep it up, pris!
