My phone says i walk a mile as well so i think im doing good but i just wonder if it should be more...



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.
