    Checking in....I've got such a sedentary job it's hard to get my steps in. I'm gonna have to "step it up"! I'd like to hear how some of you get so many steps in each day. Thanks!

    8/1 = 10,704

    I will park further away, go to restrooms that are on another floor, march while waiting for something in the microwave.

    One of the things I do now is to do things now. In the past I would pile things on the stairs to take upstairs later. Now I just take whatever it is up now so that I make more trips and increase my step count.

    My dogs helps me fill in the rest. She loves that we are taking walks after dinner on most nights!

    Due to health issues, I'm not able to go for a huge goal like you all. Oh well. My goal is 5,000 a day/5-days a week for the month of August. For me, this will be a huge accomplishment! Thanks for the challenge! ~KL

    Hello! Well, I only had 4,974 steps today and I'm going to have to charge it b/c the battery is dying. On the bright side, I went to the gym and did weight lifting with my buddy. I did the body fat measurement tool again and I'm down to 27.7%. One month ago, I measured 30.5%. I'm going to try to hit the 10,000 steps tomorrow. It's easier on the days I'm on the treadmill. Have a good night everyone!

    When you go to the restroom, you can jog in place for a couple of minutes, each time.

    Daily goal 10,000
    Daily avg. 11,166


    8/1 - 11,151
    8/2 - 11,180

    Long walks after dinner with my dog are getting me over 10,000 the last couple of days. I need to get more steps in during the day so I can take shorter walks. Of course my dog is not complaining :smile:

    :bigsmile: I don't work a full time job so i have more time to walk.....I have two standard poodles who love to walk.....we walk for two hours or more in the morning before I go to my dance class at 9AM.......when I meet my friends, we walk and talk rather than meet for lunch or coffee......I find every opportunity to walk, even a few extra steps including jogging in place for a minute every time I go to the bathroom
