Tracking Multiple Outcomes in Trendwell
You've been tracking one outcome successfully. Now you want to add another. Weight AND blood pressure. Energy AND sleep quality. Here's how to track multiple outcomes effectively.
When to Add Another Outcome
Good Signs You're Ready
- First outcome tracking is habitual
- You understand the correlation insights
- You have bandwidth for more
- You have a clear reason to track another outcome
Not Ready If
- First tracking still feels like effort
- Missing days frequently
- Overwhelmed by current tracking
- Adding just to add
Start simple. Master one before adding more.
Key Insight: Multiple outcomes share inputs. You don't double your tracking burden.

TrendWell helps you track the inputs you control and see how they affect your outcomes over time.

Shared Inputs
Many inputs affect multiple outcomes:
| Input | Weight | BP | Energy | Sleep |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleep quality | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | — |
| Stress | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Movement | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Sodium | — | ✓ | — | — |
| Meal timing | ✓ | — | ✓ | ✓ |
If you track sleep for weight, it also applies to BP and energy.
Outcome-Specific Inputs
Some inputs matter for specific outcomes:
- Sodium: Primarily BP
- Caffeine timing: Primarily sleep/energy
- Last meal time: Primarily weight/sleep
Add these as needed.
Correlation Across Outcomes
Interesting insights emerge:
- "Poor sleep correlates with both higher weight AND higher BP"
- "High stress days show in energy AND BP"
Adding a Second Outcome
Step by Step
- Continue current tracking (don't stop)
- Add outcome measurement (new reading to log)
- Review inputs - Add outcome-specific inputs if needed
- Watch for shared patterns
Example: Adding BP to Weight
Already tracking for weight:
- Sleep opportunity
- Eating window
- Movement
- Stress
Add for BP:
- BP readings (new outcome)
- Sodium input (new input)
You're not starting over—you're expanding.
Managing Multiple Outcomes
Dashboard Views
Switch between outcome views:
- Weight dashboard shows weight trend + related inputs
- BP dashboard shows BP trend + related inputs
- Shared inputs appear in both
Daily Logging
Still simple:
- Log inputs once (they apply to all outcomes)
- Log each outcome measurement separately
- Exception-based still works
Weekly Review
Review each outcome:
- Check weight trend
- Check BP trend
- Note which inputs affect which outcomes
Common Multi-Outcome Combinations
Weight + BP
Shared inputs: Sleep, stress, movement
Unique inputs:
- Weight: Eating window, meal frequency
- BP: Sodium, alcohol
Connection: Weight loss often improves BP
Energy + Sleep
Shared inputs: Stress, caffeine
Unique inputs:
- Energy: Movement, hydration
- Sleep: Bedtime, last meal time
Connection: Better sleep usually means better energy
BP + Energy
Shared inputs: Sleep, stress, movement
Unique inputs:
- BP: Sodium, alcohol
- Energy: Caffeine, hydration
Connection: Same lifestyle improvements help both
Tips for Success
Don't Add Too Fast
- Master one outcome first (1-2 months)
- Add one at a time
- Give each addition time to settle
Leverage Shared Inputs
- One set of inputs serves multiple outcomes
- Focus on inputs that affect everything (sleep, stress, movement)
Simplify If Overwhelmed
- Remove outcome-specific inputs temporarily
- Reduce to shared inputs only
- Quality over quantity
Notice the Connections
- Same inputs often affect multiple outcomes
- Improving one often improves others
- Holistic health view emerges
When to Stop Adding
Enough Outcomes
For most people, 2-3 outcomes is plenty:
- Captures major health areas
- Manageable tracking burden
- Sufficient insight
Diminishing Returns
More outcomes don't always mean more insight:
- Complexity increases
- Focus decreases
- Consider whether you need another
