We're getting there, Dance! Already more than 25% done, yahoo!

Contribution from me for yesterday, March 3 = 8,898.

I really wanted to crack 10K but by 9pm last night I was just wiped. I know, 9pm on a Friday, so sad. It was a long week .

I was tempted to hop on the treadmill just to get the total up, but I was afraid it might wake me up, so I went to bed instead. I know, 9pm on a Friday, pathetic! Watched a bit of a movie before conking out. Zzzzzzzzz...

It's the weekend now, so I doubt I'll be having high totals (I'm a total slacker on weekends) but I'll try!

I don't want to wait until Monday to post my totals, so here goes!

2/27 - 7,464 steps
2/28 - 8,494
3/1 - 7,748
3/2 - 11,013
3/3 - 3,290
Total: 38,009

3/2 was moving day, so I spent around 6 hours or so moving furniture with my family. What a workout, I tell you! I probably burned more calories than I ate that day. Yesterday I was so worn out that I literally slept most of the day. I even went to bed early last night because I was so tired. I'm resting again today, because tomorrow I'm heading over to the apartment to pack some more stuff to move here to the house. That's probably going to take all day, so I'll likely get in plenty of steps. Got to conserve my energy today

Wow, Michele, Lydia and Lena! Great job!! We are now (through Friday 3/2) at 346,560!

Still to go = 653,440

It is great that everyone is also keeping track of their own totals... that helps in case I make an error! LOL I would have missed 59,000 of Lena's if you hadn't kept track too! I am baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad at math!!!!

Has everyone decided what their reward is going to be when we make it? Mine is going to be $10 in my cruise "blow money" fund.

I think I'll give myself a food reward... mint chocolate chip ice cream! Not too much, but I haven't had ice cream in a few months so it'll be a great treat!

Well, Lydia, by the time we get to a million steps a little bit of ice cream won't hurt you.

Okay I am back in business with my new pedometer! No WONDER my step counts have been so low... huge numbers of them have not been registering LOL. Oh well... at least they counted as calories burned even if they didn't count here in the thread!!!

That must be a relief to get the new pedo, Dance! I bet your numbers are now going to go ZOOM through the roof! Dance = 23,949 for the day...

All you ladies are doing great and, together we're literally making great strides!

As for me, I'm embarassed to even contribute this piddly little bit. Yesterday was a lazy, hanging out on the couch, grazing and watching movies sort of day (and today's shaping up to be more of the same). Anyway, here goes (don't fall off your chair laughing):

Saturday, March 4: 1,792

Told you it was pitiful! Tomorrow I get back into gear, thank goodness! I see at least one mallwalk in my future this week.

Keep steppin', ladies! We're movin' on!
