Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 391597" data-source="post: 1741301">Hi everyone! Since being diagnosed a year ago I have gained at least 1.5 stone! I am very unhappy about this. I did initially blame it on eating unhealthily and not having time to take care of myself properly. (I have a busy 18 month old - although I know that's no excuse!) So I joined Weight Watchers online 4 weeks ago but have only lost 5.5lbs!! I was so good last week, tracked and pointed EVERYTHING and actually gained 1lb! I don't understand it and feel at a loss as well as frustrated. I take 14 units of Lantus daily and around 11 units of Novorapid a day when following the Weight Watchers plan. Would this amount of insulin cause you to gain or hold on to weight? I followed the plan a few years ago and never had a problem so I don't know what else it could be. Are there any other diets you would recommend? My blood sugars have been great but I am desperate to lose weight. Please help!!</blockquote>
