Right now about 5 times a day, but another goal for the new year for me is to test about 10 times a day. I also plan on doing the fasting plan to get my basal rate set perfect on my pump and then try to figure out my carb and correction ratios to perfection. Right now I'm on the "Give insulin, test sometime later, if needed, correct" method.
