    HCG pin (sub q)

    From what Ive read, I should be taking HCG in my stomach, sub-q, with an insolin needle? I pinned the HCG for the first time tonight. Ill start off by saying that my stomach isnt shreaded, im at the point where I have a pretty thin layer of fat on my stomach, to where I can see the outline of my abs, but not able to actually count the abs yet. Handheld tells me im at 12% bf, pictures in here suggest probably 15%-18%. Anyways, These insolin needles are pretty short, I pinched the skin beside my belly button and pinned down into that. From what ive read the goal is to get between the layer of fat and muscle. How do you know that you actually hit between the layers? Im sure if I hit the muscle id probably feel it, but how do you know you actually got threw the layer of fat?

    SQ is supposed to be into the fat. Just stay a couple inches away from the navel.

    So then I have nothing to worry about, just pinch the skin and pin it?

    Yes, some doc's will say not to pinch but I'm uncomfortable not doing so. Think of it more as a gentle grab. No worries, no aspiration needed with SQ.

    It's not like you have a choice... Do you even have fat, bro?

    I came in to make a smart ass remark towards kelkel, then I realized I already did. - Need to increase L-theanine dose for better memory.
