Do you ever wear it for 24 hours?

I just received my BodyMedia Fit Link in today. I was wondering if people ever wear it for 24 hours straight? I know they recommend to leave it off for an hour a day but I am curious if anybody ever just leaves it on on days they don't shower (get up too late and go to work without showering)?

    Yes, sometimes I do. Of course I take it off for showering and charging. Been working great!

    I've had it on for over 24 hours when I showered later in the day.

    I wear it all of the time. I usually get around 23 hours and 45 minutes because I take it off for showering and uploading the data.

    I have been wearing mine 24 hours a day. I take it off a for 30 minutes or so a few times a week while I shower to charge (I shower more often than that!). Sometimes I forget that I took it off and I will be all stressed out about missing the calories burned while I was walking around in my house. I find it's a great reminder to myself of what I am trying to achieve. Having it on my arm keeps me focused.

    I've had mine about a week and so far I wear mine except all the time except for shower/charging/uploading, which is usually a bit over 23hrs a day. Occassionally I might not shower one day on the weekends - if that happens I plan to take it off for atleast 30min or so while I'm watching tv so that it can charge/upload.

    I also try not to wear it in exactly the same place every day as I notice I'm getting some marks/indentations!
