    I recently got a FitBit Zip from Verizon. (Hi-Tech Pedometer) I love it! It links up with MFP so I only have to log my food and exercise onto one site and it goes to both.

    You can get a pedometer at WalMart, Kmart, just about any sporting goods department.

    I usually do over 10,000 every workday anyway, so what would be a reasonable number to set as a challenge for myself?

    I made my 13,000 steps per day for last month but am not certain I can do that again. My knee has been bothering me so I am setting my goal at 11,000 this month.

    Take it easy J - I was aiming for a daily average of 14k last month and finished at 14520 but my legs are feeling tiiiiiiiired!

    I need this kind of challenge to keep me going! I'm just a beginner and don't know what exactly to estimate, but I'll try to do 250 000 steps in March. Yesterday was also a good starting day for me too, did 11 141 steps :bigsmile:
