I have b ad lungs (34% capacity and COPD) and need to exercise all I can ( I break up my walking and try to get in 4,400 steps what = 2 miles) when I can. I know I dont' drink near as much as I should, thus the reminder with the 8 pony bead counter. Inexpensive way to get your own counters.
One could use a counter with twelve pony beads. 12 blocks is supposed to equal a mile, so if one moves a bead upward to 12, they'd have a mile walking in. I can't always walk outside so this works indoors for me.
Glad you liked this idea of mine.
