Hi there,
I am 22 and have been diabetic for 10 years now and I am still using novomix 30 insulin where i inject myself once in the morning and once in the evening, I was wondering if anyone else is still using this method? as it seems everyone has moved on to the carb counting, which i tried for a while when i was 18 and I constantly had high blood sugar,
the 2 injections a day seems to work well for me and my long term tests are always perfect, but my concern right now is that I cant seem to lose any weight
i am not overweight but this is the first time in my life ive properly tried to lose weight yet instead i seem to be gaining it particularly on my belly, i wondered if this was to do with the type of insulin i am using? but the diabetic friends i know are on the carb counting injection method so cant help me out
