Before piling on the weight I loved to walk and could walk for miles. Now I'm getting back into walking (using my FITBIT) and I must say I'm enjoying it again. Loving that I'm not huffing and puffing climbing the stairs. I'm averaging 6400 steps (2 1/2 miles) during the week and 800 steps (3 1/2 miles) on the weekends. I hope to increase my steps and miles by the end of the month.

Who's walking and how many miles and steps do you take daily?

I walk daily since about day 10 post op. I usually get in 3 - 4 miles a day for the past 3 weeks. I'm trying to break 10k steps every day, but it seems to be taking forever to build up my stamina.

I walk every other day. I'm getting in 3 miles at a minimum. I'll be glad when the weather warms up - I love walking outside.

Don't feel bad, I'm well behind you and like you I'm trying to kick it up a notch. By the end of next month I hope to be doing 10,000 steps daily.

I have no other choice, I have to walk my big pooch.....he is loving the long walks.

I've never counted steps! I walk on the treadmill for 30-40 minutes a pop and three days per week have been following a running program.

I try to burn at least 250 and ideally at least 300 calories (according to my treadmill) when I walk. I'm sure that's off/generous but I figure it's consistent so I use the numbers in myfitnesspal.
