That should be plenty of steps if you were walking for exercise, but if you're just logging steps at work it probably won't accomplish much. You're not walking consistently doing that, you're just moving around. Try to take a walk, a real walk, for at least a half hour a day. Once you're used to that, get up to an hour a day. If you do that and also adjust your diet you'll lose weight.
How is your diet? You can't out-exercise a bad diet. I wasn't losing any weight and it was frustrating me so much until I switched to lower carb and cut out the junk food. Then it finally started falling off.
I'm not sure what department you work in.. but "sometimes " when you walk down the hall.. do lunges, when you're documenting, do bicep curls with saline bags and most importantly DO NOT eat Hospital food !! I know it's convenient, but it is not good for you !! Usually fried, salty . I have been a nurse in the O.R for 28 years and I felt the same way and I tried these things and although they seem menial, they do help.
Your strength from all your work keeps you strong, trust me.. if you don't work for 6 months like I did, you loose your stamina, you are in better shape than you think
YOU ARE STRONG !! 💪
