:bigsmile: I have an Omron HJ-720ITC.......I've had it for over a year and I love it........it does all the usual stuff and can be connected to my computer to download the data so I can see my steps back to when I first got it....I can track averages for the week, month, year. and how my steps are spread out hour by hour during the day to see where my sit down and active times are.
:bigsmile: since I've been doing this for awhile (and I'm retired and have time to walk a lot) so my goal is higher and I continue to challenge myself...when I reach the day's minimum goal I put a sticker on the calendar I have hanging in the bathroom.....my real goal is get even higher than my minimum and to keep increasing my monthly average.

I'm in for another month. I received my Fitbit a few days before the May challenge began and it really encouraged me to walk more. If I was close to a goal, I would even walk back and forth from one end of the house to the other before bed just to reach goal that day. :bigsmile: I'm going to leave my daily goal the same, but increase total for the month from 250,000 to 275,000. I went over by about 8,000 last month so this gives me a slightly higher goal to work towards!
Goal: 7,500 steps a day / 275,000 steps in June0 -
Count me in "again"
My goal is 10,000 steps a day, see everyone later0 -

I'm in! I've never done this before, though, so please pardon my ignorance but do we just copy the template people have suggested (one day per line) and add a new post every day with the additional steps?
If so, here's mine (I'm in Australia so my 1st of June is already over):
6/1 -9791 (not quite there, but not bad considering I wasn't aware of this challange until just now!)

That is what most of us do.
Being in Australia you are the first to post steps for June!0 -

This is not only my first post but also my first challenge super excited. I have been using footsteps on my phone but am thinking about upgrading to a real pedometer, does anyone have any suggestions for an accurate one? I have two fairly cheap ones (bell brand & curve brand) and they are 200 steps away from each other and neither match the one on my iphone... 0

I have two fairly cheap ones (bell brand & curve brand) and they are 200 steps away from each other and neither match the one on my iphone...I've been very happy with my Omron HJ-113. It tracks aerobic steps and minutes walked as well as total steps, calories burned, and miles walked. It has a 7-day memory and automatically resets at midnight. It even survived a trip through the wash (note: I do not advocate washing your pedometer). And it's reasonably priced - I paid $28 in a retail store, but I've seen it around $23 online. (I've paid more for pedometers that were less accurate and less durable.)
A lot of my friends here love their FitBits, but I need to decide to figure out whether the added features justify the cost for me.
No two pedometers are going to match each other exactly - I'd even bet that two identical pedometers would probably have slightly different readings. A variance of 200 steps out of 10,000 (i.e., 2 percent) is not unreasonable. It's the ones that overcount or undercount by 50 percent or more that you have to watch out for.:noway:
