Hi Itchy Girl,  I haven't injected Taltz but I have been injecting others over the years (Methotrexate, Humira, Cosentyx)  I find that the tummy works best for me and like TL I take the auto injector out of the fridge for at least 15 min, pinch an area in lower part of the abdomen at least 2 inches away from you belly button, Hold the pen 90 degrees to the skin and press the pen firmly against your skin. The pen will click twice. The first click means the injection has started, and you need to keep holding the pen firmly in place. The second click means that the injection has almost finished but you need to still hold the pen in place until all the medicine has dispensed.

as far as hurting, I find it varies sometime nothing at all and then occasionally at worst a slight sting for a second or two when the medication is dispensing.
