Is it possible to wear my fitbit blaze too tight? If it's not tight enough will it measure my heart rate incorrectly??

If your Blaze is too tight, it will probably start digging in - you'll feel it! The guidance is to wear it looser on a regular basis and then tighten it up for exercise. I've been wearing mine about two notches looser than is tight on my wrist and that seems to pick things up pretty well while still being comfortable. I have just left it on that setting and slid it up my arm for exercise and haven't had any issues with it monitoring heart rate.
