yesterday. It kept reading 2159 during the day when I checked it, but I didn’t realize that it hadn’t budged off this number until 9:00 last night. Argh.

I’m going to get a better pedometer. When I bought this one, it was a cheap-o, since I wasn’t absolutely sure that I would use it or how seriously I would take this goal. I think I’ve earned a higher quality model.

Report on Week 4—I met my 10,000 steps goal only one day that week. My excuse: I was super-busy with work and had difficulty putting in the time for walking. (As always, it isn’t the actual walking that’s hard, it’s making the time for it.) My average for those other days that I did not reach 10,000 steps was 4500.

Report on Week 5—I met my 10,000 steps goal only two days that week, having gotten out of the walking habit. Average number of steps on those other days still hovering at around 4500.

Report on Week 6—I met my 10,000 steps goal only one day that week, but pushed myself to get in at least 6000 steps on all other days.

This week—I’m going to get back on pace for 10,000 steps each day. (Yesterday’s total will remain a mystery.)
