Exercise

You do it when you can and don't worry about cleaning.  Right now is about you and getting you feeling better.  Is there anyone that you could call to help you maybe twice a month on doing chores?  Don't worry about it though.  That is the last thing that should be on your mind.  If you feel you can walk - do it.  It sometimes picks you up more than you think but don't overdo.  Even if you do 10 minutes in the morning and 10 in the afternoon is good until you start feeling better.  Hopefully you see an end to this like you said - one more.  Wishing and praying that this is the case.  Thanks for the update.

Fitbit

My daughter works for a major airline that did a competition a couple years ago.  It's great that a company encourages their employees to get more exercise as sometimes jobs become complacent and people tend to not exercise.  I'm glad that you are taking part in it and wooohooo for being in 1st place.  Do you win anything if you place in the top 3?  Hope you win 1st place .

There are prizes for the top

There are prizes for the top three males and top three females. There are also prizes for anyone that does at least 720,000 steps for the three months (works out to 60K/week). My approach is to do so many at the beginning so that nobody tries to catch up. Then I can relax. The top female has essentially done the same thing. So you have a lot of people competing for the second and third places.
