[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1082039, member: 30007"] If you are very insulin resistant it might be worth considering this from a Double Diabetes perspective. To treat t2 and reduce insulin resistance, both low carb and very low calorie diets have been shown to be effective. It strikes me that what you are in need of is a slightly different approach to managing yourself and one of these may help. The usual reason that gym sessions beget hypos is residual insulin from previous meals, so if you can manage an insulin reduction by eating fewer carbs and also use less for the meals before you go to the gym, you should see an improvement in sensitivity and a reduction in hypos. Speaking from experience, it worked for me. Your comment about a banana not cutting it doesn't tie in with insulin resistance. If you are hugely insulin resistant you'd need more insulin to deal with a banana, so I'm being a bit dumb here but indoor understand how that works! [/QUOTE]
