A FUBAR Scale and I Guess I Do Get Exercise...

.
Well, it finally happened, the digital scale has bitten the dust. I could not get a consistent reading this morning – it read anywhere from I lost four to I gained three. I don’t think it’ been accurate anyway. The last time I went to the doctor’s office I weighed less full dressed and well fed than I did at home on this scale. Time to research and Amazon a new one; hopefully next week I can give you a weight!

Speaking of Amazon… I bought a pedometer. Way cool! The one I bought measures steps, aerobic steps and distance. You can also download the data to your desktop and keep a spreadsheet of your history! I knew I walked a lot. From the subway to my building is one half mile and I like to walk it fast (especially going home!). I have also been walking my dog, George, a lot more. It seems that I walk up to three to five miles a day and between 30 to 60 minutes is aerobic! Pretty good news.

The pedometer is the Amron HJ-720IT.
And I can't let this go by without introducing my daughter and son-in-law's new Corgi pup - Lucy!

Breaking the scale is one way you don't have to report your weight!!! Just kidding!!!! As good as your doing we all know you were going to report a loss, looks like a cool pedometer too. What a cute puppy.
Happy scale shopping and have a good day!

Scales can be fickle at time, for sure. Breaking it is a sneaky eay to not have to report what you've lost (or gained)

Cute pup!

Awww, such a cute puppy! So lucky! Sorry to hear that your scale has conked out on you! I don't know from personal experience, but I've heard that Tanita's are good scales. Your pedometer looks cool (and like fun)!
