Sounds like Apple's health efforts are benefitting you. Perhaps the next series will offer even more?

There are scenarios where the Watch clearly helps people. I just haven't found a reason to own one. Although this fall I am getting my daughter a new model, which will leave her Series 3 available. Perhaps I will try at that time? Just can't justify spending money on one for myself.
