Type I is an autoimmune condition. Mine was caused by a virus, not by vaccines.

The thing about Type II and weight gain is that insulin resistence causes weight gain. So it's really the opposite way from what most people think. Insulin resistence causes weight gain, and most people with Type II have insulin resistence, so Type II causes weight gain, not weight gain causes Type II.

And Type II is genetic, so anyone with a family history of Type II is likely to get it, overweight or not.
