This is the first post since New Year, during 2015 I recorded manually all the walking, swimming and cycling activities I performed. Unfortunately, being a manual process, I'm a bit backlogged at present so the 2015 cumulative totals will have to wait a little longer.
At Christmas I was given a Fitbit - it's a wearable bracelet like this in case you haven't seen one:
It's basically an electronic pedometer - a stepcounter - and it uses some data about you to calculate the distance walked and calories consumed throughout the day. It also - rather spookily - measures how long you have slept for and assesses the quality of that sleep. Of course the whole thing operates through an App which enables recording and analysis over time.
So, in the future I'll be relaying FitBit data in the blog. Not sure yet exactly what info I'll track. Here's my weekly calorie analysis for example:
I'm also monitoring weight and blood pressure weekly - not a hypochondriac yet but I do believe in getting as sensible amounts of information about the state of my health.
