New year, new me, new scale....

I decided that while the number of the scale is not my primary goal, I did want to be able to accurately track my weight loss and I felt that my older scale was not up to par! Boy was I right, there was nearly a 7 pound difference in the two number (and not in the right direction I might add)! The new scale also tracks BMI, fat %, and hydration. This morning was eye opening as far as my hydration. Women should be at about 50% and my number was 35%! Guess that means I will be watching my fluid intake today (and calories)!

My primary goal is to have a healthier lifestyle and to be more active. To reach that goal I purchased a Fitbit for Christmas and have been wearing it ever since! I don't trust the stairs tracking - yesterday it said I did 34 flights of stairs and I know that should be closer to 8-10 - but the step counter is fairly consistent. I am also logging back on here to track my calories to maintain a healthier lifestyle. My hope is that with better choices, the number on the scale will move in a downward direction.

My biggest challenge is finding time to be active during the week. I work full time in an office, am a single mom with a 2.5 yo, and do not have the time to go to a gym (do to childcare or lack thereof). So I try to walk during my lunch break but that is also when I try to run errands. For instance, today I need to do a Walmart run at lunch since that is so much easier without my daughter in tow! Unfortunately, Walmart is across a very busy road which prohibits me from walking there. By the time I get home in the evenings it is dark (at least for the time being) and I do not live in a well lite area. I loved Curves when I was a member years ago but a move and no nearby locations put an end to that.

As you can see - I need help!!!!! Any suggestions on how to get activity in during the week would be appreciated.
