    8/20 10112 (thanks to the WII)
    8/21 5631 did not make it
    8/22 4895 i have to find a way to get walking more:noway:

    Dom4less,

    I find a few things help. Parking further away, using a bathroom on a different floor and not combining trips around the house all help with my step count. After dinner walks are a ritual now and my dog encourages me on the nights I really do not want to go out:)

    Using a Fitbit and loving it!

    1 - 5,344 Drove for about 8 hours with family. Back very sore.
    2 - 21,238 Hike with family
    3 - 16.615
    4 - 18,057
    5 - 10,425
    6 - 23,409
    7 - 15,753
    8 - 6,446 Another long drive as vacation comes to an end.
    9 - 5,618 Busy with work; body struggling with the 4.5 hour time difference between here and Oregon.
    10 - 3,613 Busy with work
    11 - 3,502 Feeling lousy
    12 - 20,186 Trying to snap out of funk by hitting the gym; hoping it doesn't hit me back…
    13 - 3,272 Still not feeling great
    14 - 15,166 Feeling much better; go to gym.
    15 - 8,000 Went for a long walk and run with dog, then realized I had forgotten to take my Fitbit (pedometer). Grrr!
    16 - 13,232 Gym plus playing with my kids
    17 - 20,234
    18 - 12,404 First day of attempting to meet new goal of 13,000 steps, and already I failed! However, it could have been much worse; as of 8PM I had about 800 steps (yucky weather day) and was feeling pretty useless, so I went to the gym and stayed there 'till I reached 12,000.
    19 - 13,008 Another poor day that I attempted to salvage by lots of late night running after I put the kids to bed.
    20 - 15,161 Gym, long walk home from gym, errands, playing baseball with my son for 1.5 hours. Feet are sore.
    21 - 7,607 Hmm... Not sure what happened... The dog ate my homework?
    22 - 14,475
    23 - 20,337 trying to make up for the relatively step count on Aug 21. Gym, several hours of baseball with my kids, and a bunch of errands.
    24 - 14,423 Gym plus errands

    Average: 12,897
    Total: 309,538

    Goal: Didn't start out with one; generally, it's a minimum of 10,000 per day, but that got messed up a bit with all the travel and the funk I was in for a few days. Hopefully I'm back on track again.

    New Goals (as of Aug. 18):
    400,000 steps for August.
    Daily minimum for remaining days: 13,000 steps (but this won't get me to 400,000, so I actually need to average a little more…).
    We'll see how that goes!

    8 - 6,446 Another long drive as vacation comes to an end.
    9 - 5,618 Busy with work; body struggling with the 4.5 hour time difference between here and Oregon.
    10 - 3,613 Busy with work
    11 - 3,502 Feeling lousy
    12 - 20,186 Trying to snap out of funk by hitting the gym; hoping it doesn't hit me back…
    13 - 3,272 Still not feeling great
    14 - 15,166 Feeling much better; go to gym.
    15 - 8,000 Went for a long walk and run with dog, then realized I had forgotten to take my Fitbit (pedometer). Grrr!
    16 - 13,232 Gym plus playing with my kids
    17 - 20,234
    18 - 12,404 First day of attempting to meet new goal of 13,000 steps, and already I failed! However, it could have been much worse; as of 8PM I had about 800 steps (yucky weather day) and was feeling pretty useless, so I went to the gym and stayed there 'till I reached 12,000.
    19 - 13,008 Another poor day that I attempted to salvage by lots of late night running after I put the kids to bed.
    20 - 15,161 Gym, long walk home from gym, errands, playing baseball with my son for 1.5 hours. Feet are sore.
    21 - 7,607 Hmm... Not sure what happened... The dog ate my homework?
    22 - 14,475
    23 - 20,337 trying to make up for the relatively step count on Aug 21. Gym, several hours of baseball with my kids, and a bunch of errands.
    24 - 14,423 Gym plus errands
    25 - 14,255 Baseball, running, walking, shopping…

    Average: 12,951
    Total: 323,763

    Goal: Didn't start out with one; generally, it's a minimum of 10,000 per day, but that got messed up a bit with all the travel and the funk I was in for a few days.

    New Goals (as of Aug. 18):
    400,000 steps for August.
    Daily minimum for remaining days: 13,000 steps.
