Hi @Markatherton, it's nice to see you again in our Community Forums. 

Thanks for the details shared in your post. I understand how you are feeling about this situation. I recommend restarting your tracker: How do I restart my Fitbit device? Please also remove  “elliptical “ exercise from the list of activities your device tracks automatically:

1. Tap the Today tab, then tap the Exercise tile.
2. Tap the gear icon in the top right.
3. Tap an “elliptical “ exercise, and turn off Auto-recognize.

For more information about tracking your activity, see How do I track my activity with my Fitbit device? Please find additional information about tracking sleep at How do I track my sleep with my Fitbit device?

I'll be around if you need further help.
