I was never heavy, but have gained a great deal of weight since being diagnosed. I have tried insulin, the pump twice, and do not really over eat. I don't care what anyone says, I believe diabetes and/or insulin puts on weight. Not only puts on weight, but makes you "out of proportion" if you know what I mean. It seems to all go to the middle. I was never heavy before diabetes. Also, it would be nice if I could get the pump to work right. Have tried. Doesn't seem to want to work right for me.
