Gym twice this week,
Plus I'm working as a floor person in a clothing store so there's a lot of walking around fetching for other people... Does that count any? If so, then make that 3 diff days x 2 hours a day... Can someone let me know if my work could count as activity? -- Mélanie Ottawa, ON Canada 300 / 245 / 175 "To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance" - - Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) |

Ultimately, it's up to you whether you count your work as activity points.
Normally, routine daily activities are not considered towards activity points. My experience working retail ... I would be very hesitant taking points for it. Yes, you chase and fetch for people - but there are also idle times, time spent standing behind a cash register, standing still folding clothes, waiting for someone to ask you for help, etc. General rule of thumb that I use in gauging whether something should be used towards an AP is *sustained/prolonged elevated heartrate*. Again, this is just MY opinion ... and I really shouldn't speak for whoever is running the activity challenge.

Not sure, I bet it was most likely leisurely walking as I don't imagine you
break a sweat walking around there do you? That still counts for something though. Good job on making the gym twice. -- ~Kristin O~ 272/237.4/172 Here's our FAQ: http://www.didian.com/asdww/ and welcome notice: http://www.geocities.com/welcomenotice/index.html "Mélanie" wrote in message ...
