[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1447140, member: 355878"] What your doctor says doesn't make any sense. If you need insulin you will be seeing high levels of blood glucose - your health depends upon having insulin injections as you will be losing weight rapidly and be ill. You could lose all the weight he advised and still need insulin if you are not producing it yourself. On the other hand, if you reduce your intake of carbohydrates and regain control of your blood glucose, over time your insulin resistance might reduce and - if you are still producing insulin then you will remain healthy and see your blood glucose levels be perfectly normal. Whilst your weight might have some bearing on the matter, giving you an unrealistic goal is not going to help matters. Surely the first thing to sort out is your blood glucose. [/QUOTE]
