[QUOTE="Bananas 2, post: 1966320, member: 468065"] If you are using humalog or other ultra-rapid insulin, you may find it more difficult to lose weight than if you are using regular insulin, as rapid was made for, and therefore necessitates, a high glycemic index (GI) diet. With regular insulin, you can eat plenty meat and salads without bottoming out. To lose weight, you need to reduce fat and eat low-GI. The reason is simple math: There are 9-Kcal/gm from fat --- carbs and protein are 4Kcal/gm (less than half that of fat). [/QUOTE]
