[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2356100, member: 355878"] I suspect that the dark skin is the symptom to take note of, as it is something type twos often see - along with the weight gain. I suspect that there is a slight imbalance - the good blood glucose might seem to indicate all is well - but I think that the problem is eating more carbs than can be coped with by an individual, and it doesn't really have anything directly to do with diabetes or its consequences. My diabetes has, for most purposes, gone. If I eat extra carbs I gain weight. There is quite a precise tipping point, so a really small adjustment 10 gm of carbs, or even 5 gm less a day could start weightloss for me. A similar small adjustment that would then need a tiny adjustment to the insulin, I think, might do the trick is if will alter the balance - Like it just takes one fat snowflake to start an avalanche. You ARE supposed to adjust for the carb content of food, I thought. I am sure that it would make no difference for some, but all the difference to those sensitive to carbs. [/QUOTE]
