CureYourBody.com is excited to announce the launch of
its new forums. The next several months will be critical to setting up the
forums the way you want them to be. So
if you feel we should add more categories or sub forums, please let us know.
We'll add sub forums on our own as well, if we feel a
large number of posts are being made on a specific topic. For example, "Colon Cleansing" was added as a sub forum to the Gastroenterology forum since there seems
to be a lot of posts for that specific subject.
I'm in the process of losing weight and it really isn't going too badly, however when I go walking I'd like to try something different, maybe to help boost my self esteem so see how many steps I've taken so it'll make me walk further..kinda like when you step on the scales and see you've dropped a couple of lbs!
Has anyone tried a stepometer and where can I get one from? thanks.
Now I couldn't tell you very much about prices and whether it works or not, but it looks to be good. You should shop around online and read some reviews, but they look pretty good.

I didn't think these things were that popular - how much are they priced at roughly? I remember trying one years ago, I think I got it out of a free mc donalds or something, but it wasn't too good LOL. Wouldn't want to spend lots of $ on one though.
I got mine free with purchasing a calcium supplement. Yep its a bit encouraging. But once youve lost a considerable amount of weight, your motivation will already come from the way you look.
Go for something cheap and middle of the road, there's no point splurging on a product that will perform the same as a cheaper version. Anyway, just walk a lot more..walk instead of driving/transport..take the stairs, that sort of thing - I can see how the stepometer would make you feel better though!
Stepometer is also known as pedometer. It counts steps, and it has a reset button to press when you want to set it to zero again. In using it, you should aim to increase your daily steps by 2000 more a day to maintain weight, more to lose weight. If you are fond of using gadgets, go for it. Otherwise, walking is the best. If counting steps is tedious, then go for this gadget.
That’s already proven for exercising and strengthening the bones. You don’t need stepometers just walk for an hour or 2 then you already consume 10,000 steps.
