This mine, and I think it might be Jayney's Amazon.co.uk: Omron Walking Style II Pro Pedometer: Sports & Leisure


That is the one that I have ordered! I know they are not reliable 100% of the time, but I really didn't do 10 steps whilst sat on the settee! Waiting in for the man from Sky today, and doing housework. I shall be walking the dog for an hour today, and who knows the thingy could be here in time!
Thanks for the info.

Hello Everyone:wave_cry:

Sorry I did not check in earlier, but I have been doing double shifts ( 16 hrs) at my job for the last tueday and wednesday and slept most of Thursday:nightf: I was just to tired to get on the computer. I dont have a pedometer, In the past they never seemed to work on me. So For now I am going to report the miles I walk everyday and all my exercise. :character00115:

Tues - 2 miles walk ( It takes me 15 minutes to walk each Mile)
wednesday- 1 mile walk
Thursday- 1 mile walk

I hope today I can get a good workout in since I dont have to work today.

Ok Everyone keep up the good work

luuurve this new pedometer! It does just what it says on the tin! More to the point I sat down and didn't gain 10 steps! Have just been doing housework down stairs and have already done 500 steps, so it all counts. Walking anywhere - cheap and good for you. You go USAgirl!

Hi USAgirl, well done on those miles!!!

Exactly Big Birdy!! Walking is free and any walking, anywhere, all adds up. It's the only exercise I can do at work as well or even when doing my shopping at the supermarket! I'm glad you love your new pedometer. My husband's arrived today as well - he's weighed this morning and we've measured his steps, so it's all systems go here.

Walking is brilliant! Just think that your arms and legs are burning up calories whilst walking that they wouldn't have been whilst sitting down. Surely nothing more motivating than that! Burning extra calories for little extra effort?

 

[Janey]

Yes, definitely!

My step count is going to be significantly lower today. I have just been out for a two hour walk. A lot of this walk was uphill and very steep and so although my steps were only just over 9,000 for this journey, the walk was really aerobic and I came home dripping. I am really pleased because I put real effort into the walk irrespective of whether my pedometer acknowledges I am walking up steep hills or walking flat.

Time to put my feet up and feel everso slightly virtuous!

:chores016: Have been walking the dog, but not too far as all the fields are now river, so it all looks like a wonderful lake! So I went to the higher and drier fields where the wonderful farmer has put his sheep which curtailed it once again. However the walk was 4300 steps so thats not to be sniffed at compared to yesterday! It's the dog that is short changed today!

Sorry to rave on, but anyone who is interested in getting a pedometer get the one it seems that most of us here have. Its great!

Hey Big Birdy, you are doing great!!!!

Hi USAgirl,

Wow - my best day yet! Total steps 15,201 (aerobic steps 8,578 - 75 minutes)!

Admittedly most of my steps came from the 50-minute workout I did in the gym. I've downloaded a treadmill program from i-train which is 20 minutes long, so I did that and really enjoyed it. I then did 10 minutes on the cross trainer, 5 minutes on the recumbent bike, and a further 15 minutes on the treadmill.

I went for a walk up to TJ Hughes in my lunchbreak (0.88m in total)

My total steps for today are 21,132 and I am over the moon at my commitment today.

I walked to work for the first time ever (!!!) and I was so excited and euphoric when I got to work and felt a real sense of achievement, and then when I checked my pedometer I had done over 4,000 steps before 9am and that made me feel GOOD! At lunchtime I had a lovely long walk by the sea in the beautiful sunshine, and tonight I walked home ALL uphill. The rest of my steps have been from general movement at work and at home tonight.

Well done Mini, your steps have gone up! Now I have a pedometer I can see that before I was never doing more than 2,000 - 3,000 steps a day so I know how doing any more than that requires effort.
