Tracking my own sleep for 2 months showed I was asleep way less than I thought

I got one of those basic fitness bands at Target for like $30 last March and wore it every night through April. Turns out I was only getting around 5 hours of actual sleep most nights, even though I was in bed for 8. The deep sleep number specifically was brutal, under 40 minutes on a good night. Anyone else check their own stats and find out their body was just lying to them about feeling rested?

Those fitness bands are notoriously bad at measuring sleep stages, they mostly just guess based on movement. Sounds like your body actually does fine, but the gadget is telling you a scary story to sell you on upgrading.
