[QUOTE="Mep, post: 1834133, member: 211362"] Yes, well I need to try and get this weight gain off too. I'm trying out intermittent fasting although I can't completely fast because I'm on meds I have to take with milk or food. So I just have milk for a meal. I've lost 2 kgs since starting that and think I'll continue with it. I notice my pain level is slightly better if I just have the milk. Also I've discovered that if I start out with just milk in the morning my appetite doesn't fire up so I can get away with 2 meals replaced with milk before I feel hungry. This may not work for others, but seems to be helping me at the moment. I will probably continue on with it as my diet is limited anyhow due to other health conditions. I'm sure you'll be just fine because I'd say the more units of insulin you use you probably are at more risk of weight gain. If you are gaining, then I'm sure you'll find something works to help shift the weight. I know it's hard though... but doable. [/QUOTE]
