    I had a Fitbit emergency yesterday. On the way home from the school run I patted my belt and realised my Fitbit wasn't there. I thought back to when I last had it - dressing gown. Where was that now? Going round in the washing machine! Unfortunately, the washing machine won that battle

    Just starting and would love to join your challenge. For now, I count my steps using my phone, which is not always on me (looking into getting fitbit HR). Looking for ideas how to improve my step count. The highest I managed to get so far is about 4000 steps. Things that I've been trying to do:
    - making a point to get up for at least a few minutes every hour (at work) and walk around
    - now that it's not so cold anymore, going for a 10-15 minutes walk during lunch
    - parking further from the stores / work and walking longer distance
    - hoping to (now that the weather is nice) go for walks in the afternoon / evening (even for a few minutes)

    Would love to hear what you do...
  • Saturday i reached my highest stepping goal. 30,000 steps. Worked a 12 hr shift that day.

    So proud of you all! Great job challenging yourselves....even if you can't make 10,000 a day...it's about working toward your goal...and enjoying the ride. B)

    I join a challenge and wake up sick the next day with sinus infection and fever-- Ugh! Will start in a couple of days when I'm feeling better. The rest of you - good luck!
