I accidently wandered across her blog after reading about other low carbers mentioning this blog on their own journals.
She has a well written blog that chronicles her low carb life, fitness, past history, faith, etc.. She tells of her past, daily low carb living, measuring and tracking blood sugars, daily diet and excercise, and information about great low carb books, web links, etc.
On her blog I also learned about "walker tracker" a site where you can track the number of steps walked, and there is a great link for "Low Carb for Newbies" on her blog! It got me to thinking about measuring my own steps in a days time, and maybe tracking it at some point to get a handle on a really easy and healthy activity. You don't have to be an Olympic athlete to walk, and no special equipment is really required.
Ok, maybe some good shoes, and an accurate pedometer! :) Still it less involved than a costly gym membership or expensive excercise equipment. I heard of folks spending thousands on Bowflex's and treadmills, and other gym equipment. Nothing beats getting out and walking!
I have read too about all the little and simple things you can do - like parking farther away from the office, to make yourself walk just a little farther each day & add that much more activity into your life. Measuring it (your walking) and tracking it to help push yourself to reach new goals sounds great to me!! Gotta love the metrics!!
