[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1456282, member: 94045"] Not me. I have plenty of my own insulin. Injecting more wouldn't stop the pancreas producing its own and would be counter productive, especially where insulin resistance is an issue. It isn't the lack of insulin that is the problem with most T2s. it is the insulin resistance. The cells are blocking the insulin, so you end up with excess insulin floating about, and as this is a fat carrying hormone, you put weight on thus causing more insulin resistance. Vicious circle. The less insulin in your body, the better. [/QUOTE]
