I admit it, I'm hopelessly addicted to my pedometer. I've been wearing this for 6 weeks now and I can't get up in the morning without putting it on. I bought it at CVS for $17.00 and it is amazing. It measures my steps, regular and moderate(which means exercise), it measures how many calories I burn and how far I go. I can't leave home without it and it's become addicting to say the least.

Today, I have walked a total of 10,380 steps, 7000 of them were exercise. I have burned 568 calories and I've traveled 4 and 1/2 miles. Every day I attempt to take more and more steps, because the more I move, the more I burn. Now it's become an addiction.

Even when I'm dressed up, I clip it in a hidden place under my jacket or my slacks (on the waistband) so that I can measure the distance. I'm always trying to outdo myself. Honestly, it's a little overwhelming, I mean when I'm done with this extreme part of my diet, am I still going to be wearing this thing?

I'm not the only one. There are about 5 of us at school all hooked on our pedometers. Honestly, I know I'm going to have to break the habit sometime, but if I walk out of the house without it -- I feel positively naked! Okay, I guess it's not the worst addiction I could have. I mean, I could be craving birthday cake...or chocolate...hmmmmmm speaking of chocolate, I wonder if I have any stashed around here.
