 dang you guys get so many steps lol. Who here has a desk job? What do you do to get more steps in besides exercise?
 I work in an office too. I try to get at least the 250 steps every hour. When I go to the bathroom I will march in place for 50-100 steps. I step while I wait for things to print I am marching, etc. I also have a desk that raises so I move while I wait for pages to load.2

 I don't think fitbit counts steps very accurately lol. I was at 9,967 and it took me forever to hit 10,000 after that. At one point I looked and it was 9,999 and I walked to and from the kitchen a couple times for different things before it finally rolled over to 10k. Kinda annoying.

 I work as a Security Officer during the week 6am - 2pm at a desk job as well so when I go on break I get a good walk in. Then in the evening the wife and I will get our walk in either at Wal-Mart or at the mall depending on the day. My average steps for a day is about 6000 or could be more depending how busy I am that day.2

 Just got my Fitbit and I had no idea how much extra it is in my day to stretch it to 10,000! Some days I’m naturally active with the kids and have lots of steps (like the 18,208 day we were at the fair) but apparently not 10,000 in my regular day lol this is good motivation to move more everyday. Hope I can keep it up!2

            It's July 14th but I'm in! I'm a teacher and since it's summer vacation my step count has been suffering! I usually get 10,000 at least per day but this month I have had to be much more mindful to reach my goals
