My T and I came up with a list of things I can do to help myself, and categorized it by cost (a massage is $$, going swimming is $, and walking is free).

She wants me to do about 3 things from the list each week. The list contains over 10 items.

Fitbit takes care of recording walking. What would be a good way to record the rest?

Are you trying to record when you do something and how much it costs?

For me just about everything I want to save electronically goes into Evernote. The link below describes how you can get the fitbit info into Evernote so that it all together. For your other stuff I would suggest creating a note with a table in it (like a word document) and entering the information as you go. Like maybe date, amount spent, activities, notes. You don't have to use a table. You could just type it in too. The table is just neater.

Alternatively or in addition I have an Evernote smart notebook. Sometimes it's just easier to hand write stuff. So I put it in the notebook and photograph it into Evernote. If you have neat handwriting it will translate it into text. You also don't have to buy a special notebook but you'll just have a picture. The other thing about Evernote is it syncs across everything so if you have a smart phone you can access it there and whatever other computers you have.

There are all sorts of applications that will let you log stuff. Evernote might seem like overkill at first but a. It's free and b. I seriously use it for a ton of stuff. You might get hooked like me c. Evernote isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Is that what you are looking for?

Actually it is better than I expected, with the sync with Fitbit.

The mention of blood pressure monitoring is intriguing, too.

I briefly looked at the site. I didn't see a manual log but I can't imagine there isn't. I got an iHealth scale. The tracker isn't as cool looking but it's cheaper. I don't know if I could really keep it up. There is an iphone app I can use for sleep tracking. It measures movement and has a dynamic alarm that wakes you when it senses the right amount of movement within a period of time you set. I usually use it for about a month when I am having sleep problem to see if it has anything to do with tossing and turning. LOL. My cat would play with my hair in the middle of the night and it would take a while to wake up. Super annoying!
