[QUOTE="Sunspot, post: 595894, member: 118796"] Donnelly, that's because this thread is not about type 1 diabetes. I deliberately excluded it because it makes the discussion so complicated as to make it become impossible to unravel . But since you remind me of question about body type, i looked into my question on it yesterday and the answer i found was that when you are obese it makes no difference what body type you have. Both are then prone to diabetes 2. So it seems to become a case of not so much diet but obesity that causes so many of these cases of diabetes type 2. I think we can safely say that the skinny people with type 2 have a different gene set than those who are getting type 2 after becoming obese. And of course it is diet that's leading to obesity. So this tells me, if i don't manage my weight, even though i'm a pear, i could possibly end up with diabetes too. But i can't tell at the outset since i can't see what my genetics are. I could also be one of those who can be fat and not diabetic. Anwyay i don't want to chance it because i hate being fat and i would hate it even more if i were also diabetic. [/QUOTE]
