[QUOTE="pinewood, post: 830925, member: 147474"] How is this different from non-diabetics, though? Surely this sentence could just read "[B]Ergo, yes, eating too many carbs i.e. not balancing what you consume effectively, can cause you to gain weight[/B]". I'm not criticising just genuinely curious - does it actually make any difference that we inject our insulin rather than have it produced by our pancreas? Is there something in analog insulin that is more conducive to fat storage than naturally produced insulin? Or is it simply the case that, due to the imperfections of injecting, we are more likely to have more insulin in our body than we would do if produced naturally? [/QUOTE]
