Movement

Yesterday was my first full day with the fitness tracker.

Before I go further, I want to say that while I'm using the Garmin Vivofit, any tracker that YOU want to use is the one you should.  This is the only experience I have with trackers and I'm very happy. But I am not advocating one over any others that may be out there.

That said, I'm finding this particular unit very user friendly. It's made me get off my butt and walk, move whatever way more then without it.

I've signed up for a weekly challenge-a day behind others but as of this morning I was now in 8th place. Without this little bracelet tracking my activity, I wouldn't even be that close. And there is still 4 days left in the challenge.

You can't tell I'm just a little bit excited, can you? This adventure is the first time I'm able to see the input/output of calories in real time as it were. Not just weighing in weekly but translating movement into units of energy that I burn v. units of energy that I consume. And how those work together, or against each other is an interesting way of looking at this particular journey in a completely other dimension.

So far I'm able to stick to this pretty well.
