A member asked:
Is it harder for diabetics type 1 to lose weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: It is harder because they are on Insulin and Insulin stimulates appetite and often weight gain -- but it is still possible through careful diet and exercise. Check w/your nurse educators and dietitians.
