MFP does not have a category to log it under, but I literally walked for hours, endured squatting, lifting, bending, carrying, haggling, etc.

Felt like HIIT to me...

Log it as walking. Ya got the steps. Claim those suckers!

Totally agree.

Yep, it's also therapy. Haven't you heard?

It sucks because if I am pushing a cart, my fitbit doesnt even log my steps

I put my fitbit on my ankle when I shop for exactly that reason. LOL:)

The problem is that putting your hand on the cart keeps it from registering steps.

The ankle measurment isn't as accurarate as the wrist, but I've worn both at the same time...and it's close enough:)

They sell ankle straps on Amazon.

OMG imagine if they make a cute anklet version
I'd buy it in a minute,
I can't handle things that clasp my wrist idk why...

I may need therapy for my "therapy"

My daughter has the pendent version of Fitbit because she's a field research biologist and is always in water....so neither the wrist or ankle work for her. There's also a bra clip you can get. Lots of options:)

My wife tried to claim that she goes shopping for the exercise. I reminded her that in a single shopping trip she tends to spend at least three times the cost of a monthly gym membership and rejected her claim.

Etsy has cute versions of Fitbit holders. Necklaces, anklets, even little clip ons to make the original plastic bracelet it comes with into something fancy. I have a bunch and gave them as gifts one Christmas and everyone loved them!

Tealael my late husband's friend Nowell, we called him THE VISION would tell you that you were imprisioned and handcuffed in a previous incarnation. Man slept with an upside crystal over his bed to funnel in the wisdom and power of the universe. Haven't heard from him in years,maybe the fool crystal fell down and impaled him. Who knows?

This comment is just so Fluffy! ?

I’m going to the mall to exercise my way to some new swimming trunks because mine are falling off after surgery I can’t even do laps.

And when you do laps you run the risk of more than your lap showing. To the mall, son, to the mall.
