Good info! Quick question: How does one gain naturally without taking insulin, and you mentioned incorporating grains to diet, what grains will you recommend?
I went into to get a sleeping prescription and was told I have type 2 Diabetes. I didn't even know. I was put on Lantus, Trulicity and Metformin. This weight gain from insulin has me scared to death. I'm just going to about all carbs as much as possible. I hope I can get off insulin and get back to normal. I'll do what I'm told but gaining weight will cause me massive depression and I can't have that.
Hi Dr. Bytyqi. What snack alternative do you recommend as a "replacement" for "popcorn"? I'm the type of person who has to have a snack while I watch TV. Your response is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Melanie

Hi Dr. Bytyqi. I have type 2 diabetes & I'm also losing weight. I used to weigh between 113-120 lbs. Sadly now I only weigh 92-93 lbs & I'm 5ft 4 1/2 inches tall. I'm currently taking Metformin 1000MG 2x daily. My last A1C test result was 7.6. If I go on insulin, will I be able to "regain" my normal weight range of 113-120 lbs? Your response is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Melanie

Great question! I would suggest a veggie platter-- carrots, celery sticks with humus. Something low in carb and nutritious. Hope that helps
Hi Dr. Bytyqi. Will Bolus insulin also cause you to gain weight?
Can insulin pumps cause more weight gain than Multiple daily injections because you use rapid acting insulin all the time?
