TIP OF THE DAY - FRIDAY
WEAR A PEDOMETER. This handy tool counts your steps and motivates you to get active. Aim for at least 10,000 steps daily, that's about 5 miles, the activity level for good health. Remember when you buy one you get what you pay for. I bought one at Bi-mart for about $4.00 and it was worth just that. It worked part time and was a piece of nothing.

TIP OF THE DAY - THURSDAY
HIDE THE REMOTE...Remember the days before remote controls? Remote controlled TVs, radios, garage doors and even windows. Pretend they haven't been invented and use your muscles to do the work yourself.
I DON'T THINK SO...I couldn't get in the garage or house without that garage door opener. I haven't seen the garage door key for years, and get up and change the channels on the TV? I don't even know where those buttons are. But a good tip for other people.

TIP OF THE DAY - WEDNESDAY
ANOTHER ONE I CAN DO...DRIVE AWAY FROM THE DRIVE-THRU. Whether you're at the bank, pharmacy, or fast food joint, you already spend enough time in your car. park and run inside to complete your errands instead of waiting in the line of cars.
This is such an easy thing to do for all of us and sometimes going inside is much faster too.

TIP OF THE DAY - TUESDAY
OKAY THIS TIP I CAN AGREE WITH AND I TRY TO DO...
Park further away. You'll add extra steps to your day and save time by walking
briskly (and not waiting for a closer spot). In a shopping center (mall), park once and walk to and from your car between stores.

MAY'S WEIGH IN RESULTS
THANK GOODNESS A NEW MONTH AND A NEW DETERMINATION IS STARTING TODAY.
May was a month of ups and downs for all of us. I am so glad another new month is starting today. Here's how we did.
Liisa lost .8 pounds last week for a total for May of a 4.2 pounds lost.
Sarah added a 3 pound gain last week for a total for May of a 3 1/2 pounds gain. Let's remember the stress and everything that is going on in Sarah's life and brain. I can't imagine all the studying she is doing and hard long hours she is putting in. I am impressed that she didn't gain more. She certainly could have.
Becky stayed the same last week for a total loss of 1 pound last month.
Eileen gained 1 pound last week for a total of 3 pounds lost in May.
Joleane stayed the same last week and ends the month of May where she started.
Elizabeth stayed the same last week which gives her a 1 pound loss for May.
Yvonne lost 2 pounds this past week for a total May loss of 3 1/2 pounds.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND IT WILL COME OFF. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE.

TIP OF THE DAY - MONDAY
SPARKPEOPLE DOES ANOTHER 30 TIP SHEET...30 DAYS TO AND ACTIVE LIFESTYLE:
I am not sure I agree with all 30 of these tips but will do them each day just to give you some "food" for thought. I of course DO NOT agree with day one:
"Be your own dishwasher. Washing a few dishes by hand will keep you on your feet and active. You'll burn more calories, save water, and electricity, and have clean dishes in a matter of minutes." I get plenty of exercise just rinsing the dishes off and bending up and down to put them in the dishwasher. And I like rinse and hold if there is not enough for a full load.
