    Question for everyone...
    Does anyone take rest days from walking and if so how often?

    Since I have the vivofit I actually have to walk at least some everyday...But I must admit most of my walking is done during the week!

    Hi, I'm just joining this challenge today. I got back on the WL journey and tracking on Sunday. I've been using my feet as my mode of transportation whenever possible since Sunday and its going very well. I'm tracking every bite, every day, and moving so much more! I've only done one "walk for the sake of walking" vs going somewhere this week, looking to increase that. I've had PHENOMENAL results in the past w walking!

    I don't but if I am sick or in pain, I just walk as much as I can. I can always make up my daily steps when I feel better.

    I do. They are the days that I don't work my 2nd job.
    On my rest days I have started making myself get off the couch more though. So I average 2,000 to 4,000 on rest days. It's a big improvement over the 100 to 2,000 a few weeks ago.

    A few months ago, I used to rest one day, but now I just walk everyday that I can. Since walking is something we should be doing every day anyway, I just keep on going.

    Note: if you are walking, strenuous and intense, then rest would probably be advisable.
