Before we begin, you may notice some changes with the graphics this week.  Fitbit, or, more accurately, their parent company Google, has done away with the web interface and left the app as the only way of accessing one’s step data.  I personally find the options through the app to be somewhat lacking, but I’m sure this move saves them a quarter or two. Since that web interface is what was keeping me in the Fitbit ecosystem and away from the Apple Watch and the native iOS options, it may be time to revisit my step-counting solution.

Things continued trending in the wrong direction this week, falling further below the 30,000-step plateau.  The week got off to a slow-ish start on Sunday, as I wrapped up the holiday weekend with 4000 steps.  Monday saw a slight improvement, coming in just 9 steps shy of 4200.  Tuesday fell back slightly, needing 36 more steps to get to 4100.   A busy day at work on Wednesday cratered, coming 35 steps away from 2200.  A decent improvement on Thursday pushed me back up to 3700 steps. Friday pushed me back up over 4000 steps.  The week ended on a high note on Saturday with 4700 steps.
