[QUOTE="Elc1112, post: 290970, member: 32988"] Hi Rebecca, I have exactly the same problem! I've been diabetic since I was a child. When I reached the age of 14 or so it really started to bother me that I would put weight on so easily. The better controlled my sugars the harder it became to lose weight. Anyway, I'm near 30 now and, although I still put wright on easily if I let myself, things are a lot easier. I try and stick to low GI foods ad they jeep me feeling fuller for longer sonic less likely to pick. In terms of calories, I usually have 1,200 or less a day. That's just the level I find I need to maintain to avoid putting on weight. I do a lot of exercise also. It's not always easy, but I manage to stay at a size 8 or so. Unfortunately insulin can make you prone to putting on weight. It's normally the more you use the more you gain. If you can get your insulin requirements down, perhaps by trying low carb diets, you should see an improvement. Em [/QUOTE]
