Daytime Trial #2
September 29, 2004
Ended up ending this trial after exercising and a bunch of skips. I think I dislodged the watch again.
The good news:
I have good data that tells good things.
The burn isn't as near as bad as before.
The watch was not painful, but a bit uncomfortable. You have to wear it in a place that you don't usually wear a watch.
The bad news:
I had to end early when I worked out. I think it will get better as I didn't lose the watch after I ran up the stairs and got a perspiration warning.
All in all, I think the watch is okay. I think it is a good choice for me, because basal tests are stressful for me. Keeping an eye on the clock and testing every hour isn't good, and is too hard to do at school. Wearing the watch works.
I don't think the watch is worth $1000. $300 isn't bad, but the reporting needs to be more flexible. I also think the new price point on the autosensors is much better. I am going to see about having Blue Cross Blue Shield cover the autosensors in the future.
