As of now before surgery, I take 10,000 -15,000 steps a day depending. My set goal is always 10,000.

After surgery, my Doctor said to change the goals. Start at 3,000/4,000/5,000/6,000 etc. each day until I get back up to my current goal.

10,000 steps a day is phenomenal. It's the equivalent of five miles. I used to take my dog out twice a day and struggle hitting goal. I'm usually between 6000-7000.

My goal on S health is 6,000 for now. I used to work retail so 10 to 20+ thousand steps a day wasn't hard to do. Especially if i met with my boyfriend after work and walked around the city before going home. Now that i babysit i don't walk as much so my goal is much lower but i usually strive to make over it. I walked 13+ thousand steps Friday and 8+ thousand on Saturday. It's not too hard getting steps in living in nyc.

10,000 is hard to get in. I walked up and down 5 flights of steps and did the 1st day of couch to 5k plus walked the dog and still didn't hit that.
Good for you that get in that. I'm striving for it.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
