I’m confident that I that I would do more steps than you, but I don’t support McDonald’s … at all … ever … I guess you could consider that a forfeit, but at least I know in my mind that I would out-step you :b

Ok, let’s just have a go at that, because I think that I can walk way more steps than you can!

Roger Ebert wears a pedometer on his waist, and makes sure to walk 10,000 steps a day. He has lost 86 pounds over the last 18 months.

I challenge anyone to open mine. All I can get to is the battery. I see the instructions and I only see where the battery is. I wonder how many calories I burn beating it to a pulp.

Ok, I had a PhD open it. He can’t even run the Xerox in the office but he did manage to get it open. I am curious how many steps I take in an average day at my job and at home chasing toddlers.

I got one this weekend, and it bites! I walk about a mile from my parking space to my office ($@#% campus parking!), and the Stepometer measured only 75 steps. It then measured 50+ steps from my office to the restroom across the courtyard. Insanity!!! (And yes, I was wearing it correctly . . . )

Thanks for letting me know about the accuracy. I wondered about that.
