    Hi Olivia,
    I'd like to join you and your fellow walkers. As this is Easter weekend and will be a very busy time with family, I won't be free to walk until Monday. Knowing others are also walking will help me to be motivated!
  • I'm new to this challenge/posting business but am also excited for it. I've bumped up my exercise regimen in the last couple of weeks and started the intermediate plan on April 2. I've had both hips replaced in the past year and am doing well, but the extra walking is bothering my right hip so I may have to go back to the beginner plan or take a day break. Is a rest day allowed mid week? Any plan is better than sitting on my butt!

    Hey! I have decided to begin the intermediate challenge today. I will be adding in steps from my day since I am on my feet a lot at work. I have a goal in mind for myself and am definitely ready to start.

    Hello and so glad to meet everyone. I just saw this challenge on FB and knew it was for me. Got my Fitbit charged and ready to go. I recently decided to buckle down again and get the weight off. Started 4 days ago and happy to say 1.6 lbs are gone and that was without walking.

    We don't have a process defined for posting steps... that is up to you guys in the challenge group. If someone wants to create a new discussion for "Post Your Steps Here" people could report their daily steps in that discussion. Just a thought.

    Hello everyone. I am starting a healthy eating program and exercise program on Monday and I thought this would be good for me for some accountability. We have a weight loss challenge going on at work and this would be a great addition to it.

    Hello everyone! My name is Linda and my end goal is to run a 10K but I am very out of shape and will start with walking. (That 10K is a looooong term goal.) I'm a few days late but I'm going to jump in starting tomorrow and pick up on day 6. Best wishes, everyone, we can do this!!

    Hello, my name is Kathy. I decided to join to help meet the goal of 10000 steps a day. My work has a 6 week 10000 step challenge that starts April 6 so I thought the support here might help me get and stay on track.

    Hi everyone, well today is day one of my challenge. My name is Marion and I admit that there are days that I am lazy so hopefully I will do this challenge, it's not that I cant do it, it is a case that I don't do it and that is bad I am my own worst enemy. So here is to getting it done. Onwards and upwards.

    Hi - my name is Sue and I need to get fit. I walked two miles today with one of Leslie's videos- does anyone know how many steps that is?? I like her videos as they get my heart rate up a bit more than actual walking-so ---here goes!
