My new fitness watch ~~is arriving today~~ arrived as I was writing this message, so I'll be able to start actually tracking my steps. My initial goal for steps should be quite achievable: wear the watch for a week and figure out what I'm actually doing now.
Some weights are expected to arrive today or tomorrow, most likely they will arrive tomorrow with a whole bunch of stuff that will be piled up at my door for me to struggle to move inside after getting home late from Melbourne. Any time you only have one day you're not home that's when the parcels are most likely to be delivered!
As well as the treadmill I'm also waiting on some new scales, as mine died last week after I finally got around to putting new batteries in. It managed one last weight measure, then got stuck trying to connect to wifi and passed away peacefully overnight. Plus some little miscellaneous things like a little whiteboard to write down my plans and some new shoes.
Hell yeah!!!
Yay exciting!!!!
This all sounds awesome, can't wait to hear about your progress!
