Re: Loosing weight

Can I ask how tall you are ??
You don't sound over weight at 7 stone. Are you doing you injections in your belly ?? If so it could be the injections are attracting fat so you have to spread them about a little bit . i use my bum in the morning and belly during the day then maybe leg st night

Re: Loosing weight

To be honest I love having a bit of padding on my tummy it's my spare energy and a roll to stab when taking my fast acting insulin and I'm quite slim for my height, I shouldn't worry about losing weight for the prom as you sound slim already also I know how much girls can think about this, so I would focus on getting a great hair do and a smart manicure, us type 1's need our tums !!
