    Does anyone count their steps by walking in place at home? If so, what device do you use to count your steps such as when watching a video that walks a mile in place? I'm not sure if this counts as "steps"...can someone explain? Thanks :)

    Hi @wilsonkellies ...it appears you were dropped due to NWI. I've left a message for the MODS to have you put back into the Nov chart. Will record this weigh in once they re-insert you for the month. If you know you're going to miss a weigh in for any reason, remember to leave a note for one of your captains and we can avoid this.

    Any activity where you're walking counts as steps...on machines, biking, rowing, eliptical, treadmill also counts..I wear a fitbit and as long as you're swinging your arms as you walk, it will catch those steps...the mile markers don't matter much as far as your stepping. I do a lot of walking in place, while watching tv just to keep active and avoid sitting.

    Good question!

    @vjsky I added you to the challenge and recorded your steps. Please send me your steps for Nov 1st and you'll be caught up through yesterday. Welcome to the insanity!

    To send someone a private message, you go back to your Home page in MFP and click on Mail at the top, then put in their userid and compose your message. It's a little bit wonky, so it seems to make a difference as to whether a person's userid has capital or lower case letters. Sometimes they go through, sometimes they don't. You can always email me at jakrall@cox.net as well.

    Enjoy your weekend!

    @jessicakrall8 My fitbit will be bought today or tomorrow, I am shopping online now, thanks for your answers (above) so I know what to do here about walking in place, etc. :)
