    Work days are tough! I think I will need two long walks rather than one to make the 10,000 steps!

    10/1 --10,715
    10/2 -- 9,341
    10/3 -- 6,412

    I'm struggling on work days too. Especially with soccer games at night. I have been walking at lunch, but still not getting quite there. How silly will we look marching in place at our desks????

    I have done some marching at my desk but I do not share an office so I do not think anyone has seen me.

    Not going to manage walking today. One of my dogs had a minor injury and is in surgery.

    I hear ya. Typing all day long won't get the steps in. My hours are somewhat flexible, as I work at home, so if I can start early enough in the morning I can get a good walk in.

    10/4 -- 7555 steps. Didn't wake up early enough to get a long walk in and had a stressful day at work with one computer problem after another, so I'm calling it a day and vegging in front of the TV.

    Does anyone know why your steps don't match your calorie burn every day? Like having X # of steps = X calories but the next day it's different. Can a pedometer count your speed or something?

    Great! I had too much work to do, it rained, and the dog had another appointment at the vet. I did manage to take the dogs for a two miler this evening, so I'll estimate 5000 today. Hope to be back on the program tomorrow.
