[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2388672, member: 21149"] Hi. What your nurse should have advised was to lower your carb food intake. Exercise always helps but it's the carbs that can cause weight gain if you have too many and you have a low metabolism. The insulin is now enabling your body to metabolise the carbs reducing BS but your body is storing those carbs as fat. You can still eat proteins and fast etc fairly freely but do look at your carb intake. Note that as you reduce the carbs you may need to reduce your insulin amounts. When you next talk to the nurse ask for guidance on adjusting the Bolus for carbs you choose for each main meal. [/QUOTE]
