[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 1523482, member: 6467"] You don't tell us how tall you are and what you weigh. "Too thin" is very subjective. Whatever, sort out your diet and Blood Glucose control first. Once your Blood Glucose is stable (and hopefully you can reduce or stop some of your medication) you can then take a longer term view. Putting on weight is usually straightforward if you up your total calories. The main thing is to avoid carbohydrates unless your testing of your BG levels shows that your body can tolerate them. Obviously, if you were losing weight whilst eating the same prior to diagnosis then you won't gain weight easily until you have sorted the original problem. [/QUOTE]
