[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1554717, member: 295621"] No [USER=174581]@dbr10[/USER], exogenous insulin does not make T1's insulin resistant. It does keep us alive though... If I injected 15u bolus per day to cover my 180g carbs - then I would have the same amount of 'insulin resistance' (non existent by the way) as I would if I injected 10u to cover 120g carbs. I'm not overweight, nor have I gained any weight from injecting varying quantities of insulin to cover my carb intake. T2's association between insulin and weight gain is due to a surplus amount of endogenous insulin and innate IR, a prerequisite of T2 itself. [/QUOTE]
