My stomach gets the inj's the most...lots of fat there and also my inner thighs. Make sure it is at room temperature. It takes a while to learn the needle setting for your different spots. If the needle is too short and doesn't go in to the fat...it can really sting. Yeah, I still get some red bumps or itchy spots but I just have to deal with that. Good luck to you!

Almost identical to my experience. I no longer use my arms. They are not so skinny anymore but it was a painful area to shoot and I don't want indentations there. I use my heinie and tummy the most. I use the autoinjector for the heinie. I keep a calendar showing the following to keep track. For example:
Right butt high = RBH
or, RBHO = Right butt high outer
Left stomach high inner = LSHI
and so on....
I try not to repeat any one spot more than once in two weeks. This really works! Good luck!
