Steppin'

I read somewhere that the average number of steps one takes is around 10,000 steps.

I got a little curious and thought it'd be neat to see how many steps I put in per day. I picked up a nifty little pedometer at Target to get me started. I know it isn't top of the line, but I just wanted to get an idea as to where I am .
I figure I can use this as a little motivational tool...you know, try to outdo my steps from the day before and everything. So, how many steps do you think I'll clock tomorrow??

Stalling

I've quit posting because I've quit making progress...and I am sick of it. I've thought of activity after activity that I can do to get some exercise, but I just can't seem to get on board and stick with any of them.

  • I did some ocean swimming while on vacation and loved it, so I thought I'd take up swimming at the gym when I got home. Got a swim cap and everything...yet to even try it out.

  • Groupon had a great deal for Bikram Yoga classes (which I've thought about doing, but never done) so I bought the classes, along with a yoga mat and yoga pants. Still not attended a class or used the yoga mat.

I could go on and on, but I don't see the point. I have to quit dwelling on the downside and just get moving on something!

Any motivational tips or tools that any of you have found helpful?
