In the Beginning, I used a pedometer which I attached to my waistband on any pants that I wore.
Over the years, I had quite a few including some that looked just like this. The most steps I remember getting was one day in Washington, DC, we walked around sight-seeing with some friends and the pedometer registered 17,000 steps. Man, I was exhausted at the end of the day, but normally, I didn't get close to 10,000 steps. Plus, I don't think it was very accurate.
After that craze, a few years ago, I had a FIT BIT:
It was great for keeping track of my steps each day. I rarely got to 10,000, but it was good to see how INactive I usually was.
Then, I heard about the Apple Watch. What a waste, I thought. Who would pay that much for a WATCH that simply tells time?
Well, as it turns out, I WOULD!
And, as it turns out; I LOVE IT!
Of all the devices I have used over the years, this is the most motivating for me.
Plus, it has some funky screens when I want to change the look a little.
Here's the thing; it is expensive, but I really LIKE it, use it, and I won't need a different watch for a very long time.
Most of all, it truly motivates me to MOVE/red circle; EXERCISE/green circle; STAND/blue circle.
And, NO, I am not being paid by Apple, but even so, I'm SOLD on this great motivator.
