I guess I could try and be a bit more systematic in my site rotation - my current technique is just to feel around until I find a spot that feels fresh. 5 regular injections a day plus usually at least a couple more correction doses take their toll though. Also I guess the spots more easily reachable without getting too undressed tend to take a bit more than their share of hits when I'm out and about.I'm already on the 4mm needles and don't actually pinch up. My mention of 'pinchable' fat is more about the consistency. I'm not ridiculously lean, but what fat I do have in my arms and legs feels like it is more mixed in with the muscle, if that makes sense, and even 4mm causes pain. On my stomach and butt there feels like a more distinct surface layer.</blockquote>
