I think that I can start posting again on this thread.  It has been over a year since I was not able to get my desired steps per day in and I stopped posting because it was honestly depressing.  It became difficult to get even 4000 steps in and the best I could do was to try to get the 250 steps/hour in during the day.  After my doctor advised me that it may be the statin I stopped it and for a month I didn't notice any change but last week I did feel better and on Monday I was able to get 5000 steps in and didn't feel bad the next day, that was a change as before if I managed to get to 5000 steps I was crippled the next day.  I decided to try to get 5000 steps in each day for the week if I could and managed that and even more.

I forgot that I had set my Fitbit goal at 7000 steps and was surprised when it did it's  light show to celebrate hitting your goal.  I am going to keep my goal at 7000 steps and any thing more than that is just maybe a bonus.  I am quite happy that I am able to do what I had decided I would never manage again.

Wonderful news Wally. Will look forward to see your posts everyday. This is in line with our thoughts on the effects of the statin withdrawal.

7188 steps yesterday.  Pain is still the limiting factor but not nearly as bad as it was.  I was a bit more sore yesterday but still hit my goal so not bad.

7508 steps yesterday.  I got busy doing other things and later in the day I thought that I would never get to 7K steps but somehow I managed it.  I am looking to make my goal every day this week, so far so good.

7495 steps yesterday.  I was a lot sorer than I have been the previous few days and really didn't think that 7K would be in reach but somehow I did make it.  Not sure why I was having a problem but it will be interesting to see how it goes today.  So far so good.

8339 steps yesterday.  I felt a lot better and probably could have done more but I don't want to push it.  Not sure why I was feeling so sore Friday but it didn't seem to carry over so that was a good thing.
