Pedometer Working

I had success finding a battery for my pedometer - as well as a screw driver that would open it up.  When it woke up, it asked me for all sorts of personal information (height, weight, stride length) - as well as mundane things such as date and time.

I wore it for the first time yesterday and was gratified to see that my half-day of work still resulted in a number (if slightly) over 5000 steps.  According to articles, 6,000 is healthful while 10,000 is weight-loss-ful.  The articles were also correct about the motivational aspects of wearing a pedometer; I already feel a subtle shift toward more activity.
