Welcome to #FitReaders!! Felicia the Geeky Blogger and I are super excited to be co-hosting this fitness-oriented group for another year! If you have any questions about #FitReaders, you can leave them in the comment section or email me at twimom227(at)gmail(dot)com.
I will be hosting weekly check-ins here every Friday during April through June. Just an FYI: My fitness week is Monday – Sunday, so my check-ins are always about a week behind. You can check-in however you want.

Goals for April:
As I mentioned in my weekly post yesterday, I’m shaking things up this month and using my Apple Watch and the LoseIt! app to track my fitness. My goals for April are:
- Reach my daily “Move” goal (active calories) (updated weekly) 5 days per week
- Reach 10,000 steps each day
- Move with purpose (exercise) at least 30 minutes, 6 days per week
- Hit the “Stand” goal (move one min/hour) for 12 hours each day
- Track my caloric intake using the LoseIt! app each day
- Be within 2,000 calories of my weekly caloric intake goal each week
- Walk a 5K a minimum of 8 times for the month of April
- Attend a yoga class at least once per week, with a goal of 6 for the month of April
