Thanks Dee. I watched all three and was impressed with how completely you explained how you wear the pod. I can see that it works wonderful for you and your body type.

I have a very different body type. I am long waisted with no meat on my middle. All of my weight is carried in my butt. I could not wear the pod where you put it because of my skinny rib cage area. If I tried to put it where I do carry some meat, I could not put pants on without a pod showing. The pod for me is just too big.

I think the pod would work well for men as your shirts are loose and most men have some tummy area to work with.

I think your video was very informative and extremely helpful for anyone considering the OmniPod. It definitely shows the plus and minus of that particular insulin delivery system.

For me, the tubing is less of an issue than where to hide a larger pod.

Thanks for the videos. They were great.
