[QUOTE="Maco, post: 2354908, member: 465882"] As someone who was once 18st and now 12.6st & never cut carbs it simply isn’t like that for me at all. Also, I certainly wasn’t underweight when diagnosed type 1. I was a 14st 14 year old so clearly overweight. Obviously the more you eat, the more insulin you take so the more weight you’ll put on. Not essentially down to the insulin your putting weight on maybe it’s simply because your eating more. Like I said earlier some days I eat 200G of “clean” carbs, clean or not I still have to inject like I normally would. I had this conversation with my DSN a few year back when wanting to lose weight, was told quite clearly it isn’t the insulin that makes you gain weight. It’s the food your eating. [/QUOTE]
