Wally, I have gotten in a groove where I try for 1000 steps each hour. I go to bed around 1AM and get up around 10AM. Give-take an hour or so... 15,500 steps is around the sweet spot. Lately, I have been so tired, I attribute it to the time change, but who knows? If you really think about it, my life is kind of sad...great steps...but what...

10,586 steps yesterday.  I started to get really tired toward the end of the day and this morning I still feel more tired that I should.  Barbara, I also try for 1000 steps each hour and sometimes I do and some not.  I start at 6:00 AM and keep track until 6:00 PM so if I got 1K each hour it would be 12K but I don't make every hour.  Today feeling a bit off so probably not going to do a whole bunch.

15,539 steps yesterday. Wally, I try for the 1000 steps every hour I am awake. That is usually from 10AM until 1 or 2AM, so that is 14-15 hours. Sometimes I do more and sometimes less, depends on what is on for the day and how I feel.

6204 steps yesterday.  I try for 1000 steps/hour also but some days I just cant do it.  Yesterday was one of those but I did manage to get about 500 steps each hour and felt better as the day went on.  Today I am starting out about the same as yesterday so just trying to get as much in each hour as I can and not too worried about total for the day.

15,159 steps yesterday. I hear you Wally, we do what we can and not worry. It could be bad if we try to push ourself to a certain # and then get injured and not be able to walk for a while.

6303 steps yesterday.  I did manage to get steps in each hour but could not really do 1000 each hour, more like 500, but still, it's moving.  I have been able to get 1000 steps for each of the first two hours so today may be better.

10,406 steps yesterday.  I have a doctors appointment in a bit so that may cut into my walking time.  Still, glad to be able to get over 10,000 again.

7849 steps yesterday.  My doctors appointment really did cut into walking time.  One thing I like about my doctor is that she will spend as much time as necessary to cover your results and make sure you understand and answer any questions you have.  I have had other doctors that shove you out as soon as 15 min. is up.  The down side is that she is always late so you end up sitting in the waiting room for a long time.  Yesterday I waited for an hour before she came in and then I was with her for 1/2 hour so a long appointment.  I didn't try to catch up but I hope to get back today.

10,739 steps yesterday.  Not so sure about today.  For some reason I am feeling a bit under the weather.  Maybe I will shake it off later, or not.
