[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1698917, member: 53162"] Hi - well I thought the same as you when I got mine but I hadn't really grasped what it could actually do for me and how it could improve my life, I was also quite self concious of what I wore and was worried the pump would stick out or become fairly visible when I started wearing it, however I found a great pump belt which sits on my waist and I easily hide my pump now in tops, shirts and dresses (in my bra) if you're female that is ! It's absolutely no issue at all now. The positives of having a better HbA1c and general control, less severe hypos kind of render all of this into the pale for me, I couldn't care less if anyone saw it now, that's their issue, I know I have made great strides with using a pump :) [/QUOTE]
