[QUOTE="Circuspony, post: 2515258, member: 432241"] I think that's still the same calories in vs calories out basic argument - just saying that if you take too much insulin you'll need sugar (more calories) to stop the hypo so therefore you'll gain weight. OP - it IS harder to manage when you have to inject insulin. I mistimed my injections the other week and had to stuff jelly babies and chocolate bar down me about 15 minutes before my dinner was ready. Definitely excess calories that day. On the whole though its the same weight management approach as an other person but you'll probably find that with more focus on carbs and weighing out food you end up eating smaller portions or healthier stuff.
