My Libre3 is high up on my arm because of arm position. When my arm is down by my side it is located in the middle of my upper arm.

They have those cheap watches on eBay also with even cheaper prices. When you read the fine print it clearly says DO NOT compare it to a real BG device as the watch is NOT a medical device. So after the price and after the disclosure I would bet it is a piece of worthless trash for real BG levels.

If you decide to get one please report back with how well it works.

followup- Since Ben & I pm'ed and talked already......
I got the Libre 3 and on its 2nd day. Very easy to use and setup.
So far, my average is at 200, which is high and already had some spikes above 250.
I had a Powerade drink, and it jumped up with 3 rice cakes.
Now, i tell ya, i just starting this, and have not commited to totally water.
Having a breakfast tonite for dinner, we'll see how it goes:
pancakes, bacon, eggs, grits

LOL, everything that tastes good is high in carbs. At least the Libre 3 will give you an idea of how different things effect you. Once you get your levels down you will be amazed at how much better you will feel mentally and physically.

Dang it Ben, i cant live on fruit pops and yogurt-LOL
Time to trash everything in the fridge & freezer.
Its weird, as i eat pizza for lunch and it didnt do much.
But i have noticed when i pee, it goes way down, i guess a exit for the sugar out the body.
Been getting dry mouth latley tho.

Guys-- i know this might be TMI, but hey its helping me and maybe others too.
and dont mind, if others chime in on their experiences or eating habits

My last 90 day average is 137 BG and Pizza would easily push me to 275-300.

Breakfast is easy for me. I have a huge omelet with 2 eggs, 1/2 cup egg whites, cheese, mushrooms, onion, bell pepper, meat, and sour cream on it. That is only 430 calories and 10 carbs. It is a huge meal that keeps me full until lunch and the low carbs has very little effect on my BG.

With the metformin make sure you get enough water so you don't get dehydrated.
