I am walking everyday morning and evening to work. Does that help?

7755 steps yesterday.  Still happy just making it to 7K and not trying to push it too much.  I am feeling a lot better though.

You bet! Walking is about the only exercise I can do, and not much of that either. But it is definitely better than nothing at all.

7686 steps yesterday.  Still just trying to keep up to my 7K goal.  It is really too hot to walk outside during the day.

I try to up my steps, but I don't want to aggravate my back.

5431 steps yesterday.  I did not sleep very well Thursday night and yesterday I decided to take a little nap in the afternoon and crashed for about 3 hours.  Kind of cut in to my walking but I guess I needed it.

It's always a shock when you lie down for a minute just to 'rest your eyes', and wake up half a day later! Happens to me more often than I care to admit!  ;D ;D

I do go to the gym on and off, but I have started swimming regularly these days.

@sugarcoated, every little movement helps. Keep up the walking.

I don't know if I dare try to get back to 7,000 steps, my back has been pretty good since I cut my steps back.

Swimming is absolutely the best cardio/pulmonary exercise you can get. Good for you, Rocky!

5596 steps yesterday.  I just can't seem to get enthused about getting steps right now.  I think part of it is the weather.
