Habit Trackers?

I have a few things I track that would be easier if I had a way to do it outside the website. So like, I track how many glasses of water I drink, I am tracking how many steps I take and exercise sets I do through the day.

Instead of pulling out a book or phone every day, is there a good way to track it another wya? Other than tick marks on my hand lol.

    Log your exercise and water. If you can't connect your way of counting steps to MFP, set up a custom measurement chart on the website to enter the number to every day like you your weight.

    I've been using HabitBull to work on brushing my teeth more and smoking less. I've found it pretty helpful and easy to use. I use a spreadsheet on GoogleDocs to track my exercise sets and calories. That said, both approaches do involve pulling out the phone from time to time - if you're looking for somewhere to input data while you're away from a computer, you're pretty much stuck with paper, a mobile device, or your hand. Clay tablets are pretty impractical. ;)

    Seconding HabitBull. It does what I need, with a good interface.

    What about a bracelet or keychain? If you search "accountability bracelet" or "habit tracking bracelet" or even "golf bracelet" on Etsy you'll get a bunch of results. These two shops have a few:

    KHanischArt (I will admit this one is mine! We were just talking about these on a FB group so I put some up yesterday. Good timing!)

    BlueMarbleCardsNMore (Not mine, obviously, but s/he has some really pretty ones.)
