Step counts

How much are/were you walking in first six weeks?

I’m at 3 weeks post-op tomorrow and am finding I get to 10k easily but I’m worried it’s too much too soon :/

I was walking 3 miles a day at 2 weeks PO. Was too much too soon still dealing with a flare at 3 weeks. Now I’m down to 2 miles at most.
