Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mayfly" data-source="post: 2686262" data-attributes="member: 20754">Thanks for that.  The article concerns me slightly in that firstly, Trulicity may be taking my poor, battered pancreas and forcing it to produce more insulin which I am resistant to and secondly, this little snippet :"In response to a high protein meal, glucagon levels in the blood rise.In people with diabetes, glucagon’s presence can raise blood glucose levels too high."Is this implying that high protein meals are bad for diabetics?  However, presumably Trulicity encourages the body to use fat stored in cells as a fuel source (which should be happening anyway in a keto diet but as something was going wrong anyway, a little bit of help might not be a bad thing) and that is why I am losing weight.  Even more so with the extra exercise and the lack of calories to use as fuel.  Well, I can only keep trying to make exercise part of my day, and hoping that I can create enough muscle to make my body more efficient.</blockquote>
