[QUOTE="eventhorizon, post: 2708145, member: 357039"] Using insulin doesn't make you gain weight per se but it does add a complication when trying to maintain, increase or lose weight. A change in your physical state will very lightly result in a change in insulin requirements. It's early doors and you'll get better at counting carbs and planning activities. It's very easy to get into the habit of eating to your insulin rather than dosing correctly for what you eat. Another potential weight gain area is treating and over treating lots of hypos. Hopefully you'll get an accurate diagnosis soon and plan accordingly. [/QUOTE]
