In keeping with the original and very shallow “OMG-I-JUST-WANT-TO-LOSE-WEIGHT-AND-LOOK-CUTE” spirit of this blog, here are some things that I am loving this week:

I am very fortunate to work for a company that is participating in the Virgin Health Miles program.  Basically, it’s an incentive program that rewards us with cash money for being more active!  We wear the pedometers pictured above, which track our steps each day.  When you upload your steps into your computer, there is a neat dashboard that shows you your historical information, tracks if you’re making progress toward your goals and the incentive goals, and even allows you to add friends that are participating as well and see what incentives they’re earning!  One day this week I logged 14,000 steps!  What makes wearing the pedometer so fun is that everyone is wearing them and so you can check your steps against your coworkers all day.

Living in a new city, I’m pretty desperate to make friends.  Short of the local bums,  make eye contact with me and I will have given you my cell phone number, tried to get you to commit to a lunch or dinner, and Facebook-friended you.  I have met a lot of new people playing Dodgeball for ZogSports.  The best part is that there is a happy hour bar after the games and a proceed of the portions go to the winning teams’ chosen charity!

And last but not least….

I am so addicted to Pinterest.com that I may need a Pinterest-intervention.  ”Megan if you don’t accept this help today, we will no longer ‘like’ or ‘repin’ anything you pin nor will we allow you to reference your pins in conversation”.

Until next time…
