Usually every 3 days, as that matches when my insulin needs refilling anyway... I use about 100u/day. Depending on how well the site is working I have gone as long as 6 days (to save money) but this can sometimes lead to poor absorption and it generally takes longer for that site to heal.

"...subjects lose weight by restricting only sugars and starches, without feeling any particular sense of hunger. Moreover, the less carbohydrates in their diets, the greater their weight loss, even though all her subjects were eating equivalent amounts of calories and protein" - Gary Taubes, describing research by Margaret Ohlson
