I say go for it. Compared to A1c which is an average and can be misleading if you have highs and lows which cancel each other out to make the A1c look good. Or BS testing which even at 8-10 times a days still only gives you snapshots in time. CGMS should shows you trends, overnight levels and give a much better picture of your BS over a typical day.

Obesity and Type 2 are strongly associated. Most people assume that Obesity is the cause and Diabetes the effect. It is equally valid to suggest that the underlying metabolic disorder which leads to the Type 2 causes the Obesity.
