Hi, I am new too and I am willing to share my results. I weighted in two and a half weeks ago and weighted in myself today and I have lost 15 lbs. I am really starting to feel great about myself and my wife seemed pleased with it. So far so good.

When I first got started, regardless of occasional speed changes, it boiled down to about a pound a week. That was an average, though. I weighed myself after 6 weeks and had lost 6 lbs at that point. I have not lost any weight since then, but I'm ...

Fourth Day 6.32 Miles

I spent quite a bit of time away from my desk yesterday, but still made 6.32 miles at 1mph.

Today was meeting day, so I'm only at 1.9 now and likely to make 4 or 5 miles by the end of day. It's getting more comfortable every day though. I'm glad I slowed down to enjoy it instead of pushing.

I'm not doing this entirely for weightloss, but it will be interesting to track along with the miles, so I'll weigh myself Saturday morning and see where I am.

Third Day, slowing down a bit.

I had an easy time walking yesterday, but recovery last night was a little rough. I felt great again this morning, but decided to back off to 1.0mph and a goal of 8 miles for the day. So far, that's going great with about 2.5 miles and 2.5 hours to go in my day.

Office Walking: Progress so far - Second Day

I made 4.66 miles Friday starting at .5 and working up to 1.0 mph. Started today at 1.0 and then 1.5 now at 2.0 and typing comfortably. 6.2 miles so far. I'm going to go for 2.0 mph for eight hours tomorrow. That's 16 miles and from what I read 2000 calories? That can't be right. This is way too easy to burn that many calories, but then I haven't done the 16 miles yet. I may not think it's so easy tomorrow.

Looks like I'll make eight miles in eight hours today (with the usual interruptions for… Continue

At the very end of September, I had to temporarily give up my treadmill desk due to a staff change here in the office. I was needed at the front desk, and there was no room for a treadmill desk setup there! I was pretty bummed, I had just started seeing good weight loss results, and had been seeing positive changes in my focus and energy from the very beginning!

With an impending new hire, though, I am excited that after a week of training her, I'll be back at my old desk, walking away! However… Continue

My Tread Shipped Yesterday.

I just got the email from TreadDesk and my tread is due to arrive Friday. I'm really looking forward to trying it out. I've had about a dozen people stop by my workspace to check out my standing desk and some of them are considering a treadmill if it works out for me.
