[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 822406, member: 30007"] From reading what others on the forum have written, you haven't mentioned whether you are using Metformin as well as Insulin? The two in combination are supposed to work well together [USER=135886]@jhowe60[/USER] . With regard to weight loss, I'm afraid it's all about diet. It's surprising how much one eats when one isn't looking. Whilst you may have a job with long hours (many of us do), planning what you are going to eat as much as possible and making your own food is really the only way to control what you eat and manage your weight. As I'm sure you're aware, high volumes of insulin don't help with weight reduction, so whilst it might seem like an enormous challenge at this point in time, getting on top of your diet now is the best place to start. It's not just about reducing the carbs, it's also about making sure that you eat only enough and not more. I'm afraid it's a calorie count and carb count game, not just carbs. [/QUOTE]
