[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1509418, member: 94045"] I have been testing since April 2014 and still test several times a day even if I don't really need to. It actually motivates me, and on days when I test less frequently, say not testing a routine evening meal, I can feel the devil on my shoulder saying eat that extra potato because you aren't going to test! It takes more effort to resist the devil than it does to test. :) I actually think it is because I am a data freak and hate to see my averages and graph trends on the rise. If I didn't keep all these stats my motivation just might go. Having said all that, for several months now I have limited my testing to all the base level times (fasting, before meals and bedtime) and have resisted most post meal tests. I don't eat breakfast, so that means I'm currently testing 4 times most days. [/QUOTE]
