Message: <blockquote data-quote="GrantGam" data-source="post: 1554801" data-attributes="member: 295621">You're right about the pizza effect, it's something I suffer from. However, the temporary IR from the 'pizza effect' is absolutely caused by the fat content of the meal, not the amount of injected insulin. That is the point I'm stressing and the point that [USER=174581]@dbr10[/USER] doesn't understand. We're not talking about fat and it's impact on IR though.Varying insulin doses in T1D to match carbs does not cause IR nor does insulin lead to weight gain. I'm an ideal weight T1 who is testament to the fact.T1's are usually overweight because of the same reasons that non-diabetics are. Insulin is just the scape-goat in many instances.</blockquote>
