I have been writing from time to time on this blog about walking and fitness. This post recounts reaching 150 consecutive days of reaching the dual goals of 10,000 or more steps and five or more miles. It takes focus, but you can do it if you decide to. The post also includes a simple Rx for achieving 10,000 steps – or your goal – per day. I also introduce two forthcoming books!

That breakfast served as a turning point for him and his business and the family.
I have used a Fitbit or other step-tracking device regularly for more than eight years. I can say, without a doubt, that this regular use has had a significant impact on my health, my weight, and my outlook towards life. In this post, I talk about nine ways that using a Fitbit can help improve the quality of our lives.
