[QUOTE="the_anticarb, post: 306694, member: 16982"] I don't like it as I associate it with weight gain, but I'm at the point now where I'd rather take the hit on weight gain than on complications so i just kind of accept it. The only way to cut insulin in my opinion is to cut carbs, so a higher dose of insulin is the price I pay for eating more carbs. Having said that I've been eating a load of rubbish after starting a new job and being on the road a lot, and injecting loads of insulin and putting on weight so I can't wait to start cutting it down and losing again. It's no different I suppose to a 'normal' person who will produce more insulin at times particularly in response to diet - only they can't see it as it's all done naturally. But they will see the effects ie weight - it's how most obese non diabetics got that way I guess. [/QUOTE]
