3/6: 8,622
3/7: 6,469
3/8: 9,177 (AH! I should have payed attention that day, all it took was an extra few minutes of walking to break the 10K mark!)
3/9: 13,179 **
3/10: 2,292
3/11: 2,382

So I seemed to have set a lofty goal of breaking 10,000 10x this month....11 days in and I only managed ONCE. Life keeps rolling and I'm sure going to keep trying but realistically...I'm going to drop my goal to 6x this month! April, I'll go for 8x!

I checked as I was heading to bed and discovered I needed about 270 more steps to make 10k. A trip around the house and marching while brushing my teeth put me over!

Goal is 10,000/day

3/11 - 10,003
3/10 - 11,224

sounds like a plan I will start also sometime this week but I need a pedo,,,any suggestions for a good one, for someone that is on a low budget plan?

I have seen a few posts that Omron step counters are good. Some of those are $10 to $15. I have a New Balance Via Slim that was $30 - it is small and works well. There are some New Balance ones for about $10.

On my really good days I will have 4000 by breakfast. It is almost lunch time and I only have 3,700. I see a long walk in my future....

I'm going to try and remeber to wear my step counter daily. I would love to do this daily but I'm just so forgetful in the morning Thanks dancingj2 for reminding me to start tracking. I need a little push every once in a while

justdoit_steph

Does everyone take off their counter when they exercise? If I took my counter off while exercising I would not make it anywhere close to the 10,000 mark? The desk job really kills my walking. I try to get up and move around every hour but sometimes it just isn't possible.
