    Those of you with higher move goals, do you have more active jobs or lifestyles in general? My move is 350 currently and if I didn't work out I would struggle to make it most days. I work at home and although I'm up and down a lot it's really not that much overall on a quiet day where I stay home. Yesterday was a minimal day for me - work at home, went to Costco and Ralph's and then did 30 minutes on the treadmill and I got just over 400 move cals I think. I'm impressed with those of you up at 700!

    When I started toward the end of September, my assigned goal was 630. Luckily, after a week, my watch learned enough about me to know I wasn't hitting my target most days. It reset down to 410 and I was able to meet that for a week. It keeps wanting me to increase more than I'm willing to! I am increasing it every week though. My current target is 470. I sit at a desk most of the day, so I have to make an effort to get up and go for a walk at lunchtime - if I don't, I won't hit my target.

    I love the Watch. Worth the cost! I get obsessed with trying to reach my goals.

    That is sooo me! I am loving that aspect - challenging myself. I don't want to break my streak, even if it means dragging my butt out at 8pm in the cold & dark!

    Mine is 400 - when I work from home I don't hit it unless I go to the gym. When I commute into the office and to my various clients I actually get really close and sometimes just need a short walk to hit it. I try to walk between my office and client sites as much as possible. When I go to the gym after work that's when I get really high move goals.

    I have mine set at 600, but according to the health app I've have averaged 833 a day for the last month. I'm reluctant to adjust it too radically as I only hit above 700 on the days I've been doing strength training and cardio... Cardio days I've been lazy. I'll earn 2-300 on a treadmill, and then the rest walking back and forth to the office kitchen getting in my 64oz of water.

    I never checked my average, and it appears to be 532. That's spiked by my two skate nights though, I don't think I would be in reach of that on an average day even with half an hour on the treadmill. I've been increasing my workouts a little but I don't have unlimited time every day to spend on them.

    I have people coming over tonight for a little Halloween type evening. I need to get some kind of workout in before it's too late. I want to burn some calories so I can snack with everyone but I'm also feeling like a good long stretch might be nice.

    This is awesome! I'm already inspired since my move goal is a lame 220 and there are days when I don't reach even that. I have very sedentary jobs (teacher & writer) I guess combined with my current weight (someone told me that matters). I'm [edited by mods] ya'll know that if even one person adds me I'm going to feel compelled to up that move goal to 300.

    I have mine set to 500 right now, but hoping to up it to 700 soon. I'm currently studying for the MCAT so I would say my "job" isn't very active as I sit at my desk for 6-8 hours a day. However, I do swim 4 times a week and run 3 times a week. Without the workouts I would probably never meet my daily goal.

    I added the two you mentioned with no problem, but my app says tabbycat00 isn't an AW user.

    I was going to send her a message to add as well. It may be the email address. It's happened to me before with others but it was my fault I entered it wrong so it showed not an apple Watch user.
    And also anyone reading this it helps at least for me to have a first name to go with the add so it's not just an email address on the list of shares.

    Weird. I wonder if it's because I recently changed my Apple ID since somehow someone got ahold of my old one. Right after I returned my old iPhone to the Apple Store (hmmm) wiped clean but evidently not clean enough. I'll investigate on my end. But for the record, there's my Apple Watch. Lol.
