If I Eat 5-6 Times A Day, That Means I Only Have 2-3 Hours Between Meals.... Will That Be Enough To Be Able To Check My BG Before Meals?

Yes. Testing should happen 2 hours after you're first bite of food. You may find that you're combining tests. i.e. Testing to see what your bg is after eating and testing to see what your bg ids before eating. One test strip, 2 answers......such a good deal!
