Where do you inject and why? Tummy, Thighs or arm?

is one better than the others, give you more or less symptoms , more or less suppression…

I did my first jab on Tuesday and the suppression has completely gone today ( Saturday)

I think pinching just gives a good taut piece of flesh to inject in. I didn't pinch at first but 5 stone loss later my tummy is very soft so now I pinch as I just find it easier.

I like to "pinch" to steady the wobbly target! It is less of a pinch and more of a hold, just feels steadier for those really fine needles.

Really pinching is not needed. For those using longer needles e.g. 6mm and/or 8mm, especially when slimmer, Eli Lilly suggest using the skin fold technique I linked to before.

I always bruise, but stomach is the least noticeable for me. Thighs seemed worse and the one time I tried the back of my arm it looked like i’d been in an awful accident!

Last week I tried my stomach for the first time as above - I've still got a sizeable bruise. Much bigger than when I did my thigh in week one. But last night I did my stomach again and no bruising and couldn't feel it. Don't know if I'm getting a better technique with practice...
