How often do you test?

I am looking to the future about how often I will test and I am leaning more toward, Out of bed, mid morning/pre lunch, after lunch as this is when I spike, and before bed. Also pre exercise and post exercise. I feel like this may be a manageable day of testing. My endo states " this is not a science experimant, don't treat yourself that way." Although I kind of like the whole science experimant idea. I like knowing what is going on in my body.
