### 5/5 — Great study

*2022-06-29*

Thanks!

### 1/5 — Penn State Study

*2022-03-21*

The people in the Penn State research study kicked me out of the program for having a rash on my arms and not wearing my Fitbit for 1 hour of 1 day out of a week for it to charge. They didn’t even send me a new band until past halfway through that week so I was just wearing it and letting the rash get worse to try and meet their unrealistic standards. Do yourself a favor and do not be in their research study it is not worth your time and effort for the little reward they’ll compensate you with.
