Reader health tip: No cocktail before 10,000 steps Feb 13th 2013, 11:08 How's this for motivation? No workout, no cocktail. That tip comes to us from one of Los Angeles' best-known food bloggers, JoAnn "Jo" Stougaard, who writes "My Last Bite." She told us that she has adopted a new rule: The weekend cocktail hour cannot start until she's logged at least 10,000 steps for the day. She then posts a picture of her pedometer count and shares it via Instagram using the hashtag #LATFit. Stougaard is one of the "foot" soldiers in the Los Angeles Times' efforts to make 2013 the year we stick to our health and fitness goals. We're doing it by taking small, simple steps toward ditching empty calories and keeping exercise fun. (We kicked off the year with a list of 52 "paths to fitness." You can find it at latimes.com/52paths.)
