10 000 steps

My pants got tight.

I can feel my belly.

The lounge chair has

my butt imprinted in it.

My exercise routine has

vanished and my diet

has switched from mostly healthy

to partly healthy...

It’s not good.

While I’m munching on junk,

lazing on my lounge –

the balloon man comes on TV.

He tells me that he’s become

a swapper....

that he’s getting more exercise

because he’s not just sitting...

I’d switch channels,

but I couldn’t be bothered

reaching for the remote...

Ok, ok...

It’s not quite that bad

But I do need to get back

into the healthy lifestyle bit...

So ten thousand...

 

In honour of the Cow’s

ten thousandth celebration

I will also reach 10 000...

Steps...

Every day.

The 10 000 steps idea

is to walk at least 10 000 steps a day. 

This is the same as walking

6 – 8 kilometres a day

(depending on the length

of your stride...

My stride’s pretty long,

so I’m saying I’ll be walking

8 kilometres a day!).

I have faith in stepping into exercise.

I’m a little stubborn...

I like to push myself (sometimes),

so I know that every day,

I will try to out-step myself.

I’ll be fit before I know it!
