There may already be a thread for this, but I'm just looking for friends/motivators to add on the Apple Watch. I sit at a desk 10 hours a day and setting alarms to get up and move just doesn't seem to be doing it for me anymore. I need to compete lol

    Hi Women Apple Watch Users! I am switching my fitbit to the new Apple Watch (series 3) once they arrive in. I'm curious to know if you went for the larger size or smaller one. I'm 5'7 and was wondering if the large will be too big. I don't like the idea of the smaller screen. Also, if you have the aluminum model, has it gotten scratched or damaged? I will be happy to share my email once I get one :)

    Hello I have the smaller 2 series 38mm. Get the protection, my husband dropped his 42mm one and Apple told him 300 to fix since he did not get Apple care.

    I'm part of the Apple watch crowd and walk often and always active. Would love some competition also. I don't know how to add someone yet so message me and I can figure it out.

    I am 5'7" and i got the small one 2 months ago. Go to stores that sell them and try it on for the face size. Mine is aluminum and so far looks new!

    I'm 5'10" and I have the 42mm screen. I have quite slim wrists, but I don't find that it looks too big. My Mum is your height, and also has the bigger screen which she loves!

    Mine has gotten a little scratched, but I've had it 2 years now so can't complain too much. My main issue is that I smack it off door handles quite a lot at work! I got a little clear rubber protector for the sides, which has really helped reduce the damage :)

    Thanks All! I went to the store and tried them on. I ended up with the smaller one. I don't like wearing much on my wrists and it felt better to me. I know I would have liked the larger screen but I'm sure I will adjust fast. I splurged for the stainless Steele with cellular. My provider (Rogers) isn't supported yet but I like the idea of not carrying my phone all the time. They are back ordered 3-4 weeks. New Goal- no sweets until it comes :)

    It's best to get what feels best to you - glad you got to try before you buy! I have the 42 stainless steel & love it (not a scratch in almost a year). You can add me when you get yours (I'll add you on here & you can message me when your watch arrives). I've totally fallen off the wagon and need some new challenges to get me going!

    It motivates the *kitten* out of me lol I feel accomplished when I close all of my rings for the day. I also am competitive so sharing with other folks makes me want to beat their activity every day lol

    I absolutely love my apple watch! Anyone who wants to add me can! I do have an issue with the outdoor walk feature not registering any activity, but everything else is great! It is the aluminum model and a series one, maybe the new series has fixed that issue?

    I would love more friends to keep me going. I'm fairly active and always up for a challenge. I know we can't post information so message me and we can add each other.
