I got a great Christmas present from Sarah this year. The Nike+fuelband watch. It calculates how many calories you are burning while doing activity, counts how manysteps you take, and can even be used as a regular watch.
Here it shows how many steps I took on this particular day. It attaches to your computer by USB, and you can register it to yourself, with your weight, height, and age. You can keep connecting to the computer and it will continue to keep a log/journal of your activities–steps taken, calories burned, on a daily basis.
You can have it set for different goals, and once you achieve them, it lets you know that you have made it that day. It is a great way to keep track of all the activity you do for the day. You can use when you are actually doing exercise, or wear it all day long so you have an idea just how many steps you actually take in a regular day. Very convenient, and useful. You are doing walking everyday, why not count it besides! Keep moving everybody!
Maybe this will help me actually keep track of the number of consecutive days. Somewhere in the last 2 months I started going backwards instead of forwards, and have been listing the days 100 less than it should have been. My consecutive days should actually as of today be 1928. Now to keep track more closely as I go.
