I finally sat down and read some of my comments and notice that thrifty ray had challenge me in stair climbing. She mentioned 25 times a day! I don't know if I could do it, but I can try.
What I have started doing is using poker chips upstairs. Every time I go back down the stairs, I take a chip and put it on the newel downstairs.
The first day I made 17 trips, which is
544 steps. Yesterday, I did 13 trips which is 416 steps.
Ok, Ray, let's have a go! (Do you need to lose weight? I do!)
I won't feel bad if you win a lot, I think I am probably older than you.

I am 44 ... so how about this.... let's come up with an accumulative total for each week that we achieve together... when we make it, we get to treat ourselves to a little something ....that way we are working as a team towards the same goal.

I am putting a little dish of pennies at the top of the stairs to remind me.
Thanks, Ima Saver...this is going to be fun.
