    I am also aiming for 10,000 steps. Do we calculate those steps into our activity log even though they are not all aerobic steps?

    I feel lost if I'm not wearing my pedometer. I've used it for several years now, and am so used to it, it's like a part of me. LOL! When I report my cardio exercise. I just use the aerobic steps and calories burned, not total. I keep track of total steps per day on a different log.

    I feel the same way. I've wore mine everyday since I got it on 4/26/12.

    My MD has suggested a minimum of 10,000 steps. It is turning out to be more difficult than I thought.

    I don't count my regular steps in my exercise. If I walk or use the elliptical I do count that time. Work days I don't have to much trouble getting to 10,000 between the walking of the day and then the 30 minutes I walk with co-workers. I am home today due to weather and I must say my steps are not nearly as high as normal!!

    I don't know what my final count was yesterday, my pedometer kept slipping off. I know I was below goal just not sure how below goal. But today is a new day and I will make my 10,000 steps today!!!

    I barely got my steps in yesterday. I had to walk right up until midnight.

    Hi All,

    This is a wonderful group. Should continue to log in everyday. I love my pedometer!!!!. I was up to 14,000+ steps a day (averaging about 7-10 miles a day). I fell off in December 2012. Even so, I never stopped wearing my pedometer. Let's try to set some weekly goals.

    My weekly goal is: 60,000 steps

    JOIN ME!!! :happy:
