We don't count that, but it's still sitting. Plus, it can be stressful sitting! Getting up and walking around, whether it's to the printer, the drinking fountain or a co-worker's desk is a good way to break up all the seat time. And YES on drinking water while working. Much better than soda or other sugary drinks! Good points, all! Alta,

Thanks for linking to it here. She has an awesome set-up, but I'm not much of a treadmill person, so I'm trying something different. You're so right, it's amazing how much blogging can impact your overall health. Way too much time sitting at the computer! And baking and eating! =) Heidi-girl,

I'm not sure why, but I get antsy. =) I'm trying to attack the problem from a different direction. I'm sitting, but not for long periods of time without getting up and doing some exercises. I've got several that I've put together into a little routine to loosen my lower back, get my blood pumping and stretch my muscles. Elizabeth,

I love the way they humorously make a point. There are so many detrimental effects from sitting too long and these folks put it all together for us! Kalinda,

I've realized that in the past 4 or 5 years the amount of time I spend sitting (at my desk working on my computer) has increased dramatically and I can feel a difference in my health (especially lower back tweakiness). I'm trying to get up every hour and bounce on my little rebounder. It shakes things up and gets my blood moving! Shirley,
