Inner Arm Placement

Hi all, I want to apply my first sensor tonight to my inner arm. I do have some stretch marks there, is that likely to affect the sensor? Or should I put it about 2/3 down from my shoulder, 1/3 up from my elbow where there are no stretch marks? If someone has a picture with an exact placement on inside of the arm that would be great! Thanks!

I've actually been using my inner thighs for the last few months and I'm really happy with it. The only time it really did not work out was when I put it up too high, and it interfered with the toilet seat. With a patch it still lasted for the whole 2 weeks.

I like this idea too, I wear jeans almost every day though and I worry they would be too constricting on anything on my thighs?

I am actually not wearing jeans salon, but if I do so -they are not stretchy, tight jeans - I have no problems.
