6,292 steps yesterday.

OK with that number as I really needed to slow down from all the stressors of the last couple of days. Today should be more calm and back to "normal"... what ever that is!

4313 steps yesterday.  That is pretty close to normal for me nowadays.  I actually have to work at it to get to that number but it is where I am able to get to most of the time.

Lucky you! I could really use a massage about now, may have to look into one.

6,074 steps yesterday.

OK with that, Monday is going to be busy with trip to town for Eye dr yearly exam. I  will be getting eyes dilated, but once they clear some can run a few errands in town so another day of rest today will work for me just fine.

4193 steps yesterday.  Still getting the min. 250 steps each hour and just managing to get 4K total steps.  Today I think I am going to back off and take it easy for a day.

Well, I said I was going to take a break yesterday and I did so I didn't count steps but feeling better today.
Hope your trip is not too stressful Barbara.

Thanks Wally! All this bad weather just seems to have me on edge. It is really time for some decent weather after the frigid Winter we had...

There was a cyclonic storm in the Arabian Sea which skipped Mumbai and headed up North but yesterday we did have high winds and some drizzle as a result. The other thing is that the Met department now says, that the cyclone will also lead to delay in the onset of monsoons as it seems to have sucked in some of the clouds that were headed this way.

9,228 steps yesterday!

Dr appt, then a grocery shop up in town added a lot of steps. Then a rip roaring thunderstorm passed through last night, shut down TV satellite...paced around for 45 minutes until it passed. Nearly 1,000 steps in that hour alone. Did not expect to walk so much and am feeling it this morning. Planning to take it easy today.

4597 steps yesterday.  A pretty good day for me and feeling good this morning so that is a plus. 
I heard that there was a delay in the monsoons SKB but I didn't know the reason.  I know it is really important for India so I hope it is not prolonged.

7,677 steps yesterday.

Back was really achey in the morning and early afternoon, really even considered putting the back brace on for a while. But by resting more, I didn't have to  go there!!

Not going to push anything today either. It is weird to feel so fragile...

Yeah I can really identify with that. 
4140 steps yesterday 12/12 hours with at least 250 steps.  Since that is actually my main goal I think I will start listing it along with my step total for the day.

7,981 steps yesterday.

17 hrs walking, hit at least 250 steps 15 of the hours, highest was noon with 890 steps.

Well, hit my 7,000 step goal but actually wasn't really trying. It is a fine line between what ends up hurting the next day and what count is OK to reach. I have to make not hurting the next day the highest goal.
