I LOVE my pedometer, got it for Christmas. At Christmas time I was averaging about 2,500/day. Keep in mind I was at twice a healthy weight for me with a BMI of 44+, but I have 3 kids and take care of 2 more, so my days are fairly action packed and on the go. Right away I started pushing myself to be more active, and discovered that the difference between my normal every day life and a 10,000 step life, was basically a 30 minute run. I probably could have guessed that, but nope it took a $20 pedometer to figure that out. Anyway good luck with your weight loss journey and keep that pedometer on, it's a great way to motivate. I hit 10,000 consistently after I'd been wearing it for about 6-8 weeks. Now I hit 10,000 before my workout is done, and generally speaking I'm at 15,000+ by bedtime. You can do it.
