Well, sort of, K did rip it off in gym in the middle of third day, but because the adhesive was coming loose at the bottom, ( cannula up) probably because of her SKIN TIGHT abercrombie jeans...

If anything the skin tight jeans should hold the thing on better, I would think!

Does it take longer for the thigh to get going due to more fat being there??

Newer pods should make the location less noticable, I would think...

Other thigh tips and tricks?

Do you need a bigger pod change bolus in this location? We are doing 1.5 units for belly and back, and this helps avoid a four hour pod pod change spike...

Again apologies to omnipod for my rant last week, which was really just diabetes, not pod related!!

Best, Natalie
