I Would Like To Ask Why When You Take Your Insulin Properly Why Do You Gain So Much Weight
From experience its not just cutting carbs its reducing your total portion sizes too.
Warriors, Insulin has 2 functions.
1) metabolize glucose in the cells to power our bodies.
2) store any excess glucose as fat for lean times.
So any excess sugar or carbs, especially carbs, not needed for daily energy is converted to excess weight.
If you don't want to keep gaining weight, cut severely your sugars and carbs. Baby steps. You can do this.
Never give up, never surrender, never ever.
You got this.
Have a blessed day.
We all know that Insulin metabolizes blood sugar and turns it into food/energy for our cells.
What the Doc forgets to tell you is that Insulin also turns "excess" blood sugar into Body Fat and then you gain weight.
You had too much excess sugar in your blood and needed the insulin. Too much blood sugar can destroy your heart, kidneys, eyes, cause dementia and many other nasty things so it's not like you can let it stay high.
So you take insulin.
But your body doesn't need all that excess sugar so when the insulin has made sure everything is "fed and satisfied" it starts turning that blood sugar into body fat.
The solution - start cutting "carbs" (sugars and starches) from your diet.
That will achieve 2 things.
First it will mean there is not enough "left overs" to be turned into body fat and second, it could result in reducing the need for insulin in the first place.
OR you just keep eating like you are eating, take the insulin to deal with the excess carbs that your body doesn't need, and have it turned into body fat.
A lot less people would gain weight when they start insulin if Doctors would simply tell them that it is imperative that you reduce your carb intake as well if you want to remain weight neutral.
