[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1419719, member: 295621"] It's been a good while since I've worn a dress [USER=378319]@SueNSW[/USER] - especially to work:) There's no prerequisite to be chubby for injecting into the back of your arms. I initially thought the same, but after some excellent advice from other members on this forum - realised that it's entirely possible. And I'm 72kg at 5' 8" (with non-chubby arms:)) The secret is to hold the arm you wish to inject into, outright in front of you, like you're pointing at something upside down (that relaxes the fat around your triceps). Then simply take your insulin pen in the other hand from the underside of your tricep and inject. It's as easy as that. I don't suggest using the technique of the gentleman in the video below (personally because it doesn't work for me) however, you can see just how "un-chubby" his arms are - and he manages just fine:) [MEDIA=youtube]esjNmgzEZmU[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
