I used to wear a Fitbit religiously, for about 2 years. I considered it my "fat band" and while it kept me aware that i should walk more and exercise, I can't say it did wonders for me. Was it useful? Sure -- it made me want to walk more. And yeah, I lost some weight. But after a while, it just gets annoying. In general, I can't wear watches, bands, or anything like that. After a while, my wrist starts to turn red and break out in hives. I've tried all different brands and its the same result. My girlfriend even gave me her Apple Watch when she switched to another watch and that too, made me break out in a rash after just a week or two of wearing it. So aside from forgetting to wear my Apple watch, it just causes me rashes. I'd say it is preference.. some people like them, some don't.
