Yesterday I was contemplating the way I park now vs. the way I parked when I was heavier. When I was heavier it was all about getting the closest spot. Now when I am in a hurry I still do that but most of the time I park as far as I can within the parking lot so that I have to huff it to the front door. It is a small thing but it keeps me active... especially on errand day when I am lugging carts back and forth! It's a great way to get in those extra steps. So my question to you is what little thing do you do to keep your fitness in line??

Well, I only watch tv when I'm on my cycle...that helps me keep my mind off what Im doing...I often lose track of time and go for longer than what I had planned

I will get off the bus stop - 2- 3 stops before my actual stop and walk the r est of the way to work in the am - and I walk home from work at least 3 nights a week.

I take the stairs as often as possible in my building (the exception is if im lugging a 25lb box of cat litter or laundry

I take the long way around to teh bathroom at work - adding about 500 steps to the trip...

These are really great ideas! I like this thread already

I'm on a 15K step a day obsession now -so i basically take the long way - -where ever I go Lunch is usually from Subway if I haven't packed a lunch -which is right across the street - I will do a lap around the block to and from the subway so I get about 2000 extra steps OK people thinki'ma little insane but i'm ok with that..

I like to walk to my mother N laws instead of driving 6 blocks to her house,also like MAL said when I shop or go anywhere that has elevators as long as I don't have my 4 kids I use the stairs

When I lost alot of weight before I was riding a bike everywhere I went in my small town...I had a cart to pull my daughter and when I had a sitter I would take the cart 2 miles to the grocery store ect. and haul my goods home with bike.

When I finish my work and go back home .I walk all my way home .And at night ,I never eat .
