    I'm in. My goal is gonna be 12,000 steps a day or more :3 It's a little hard on my work days when I spend the whole time standing or sitting, but that's the point of setting goals.

    10/02-- 9573 -- 22070
    10/03-- 20715 -- 42785

    Goal-- 12000 -- 372000

    OMG this would kill me! I'm 20 days in MFP and have only taken short walks. My life consists of mostly sitting... at work... at home... If I had to guess I may have 1000 steps by the end of the day... but that is stretching it!

    But this will give me a reason to buy a Fitbit... or one of those gadgets...

    So why not????

    Tetesandra - Awesome start!

    Lbster - its never too late:smile: Welcome!

    Twooliver - Fitbits can be great but can be expensive. You can buy just a simple step counter for $5 to 10 to start.
