Problem is diabetics don’t lose weight. Well noticed.
Diabetes is a chronic condition associated with abnormally high levels of sugar (glucose) in the blood. Insulin produced by the pancreas lowers blood glucose by making the food enter the cells properly. Absence or insufficient production of insulin, or an inability of the body to properly use insulin causes diabetes. So it has nothing to do with the food intake, but the body’s inability to produce the insullin that the body can handle to use up the intake of food or allow it to leave through urination or defecation. And in some cases, people are rejecting their own insulin which adds to the misuse of the food even worse.
So cutting the amount of food you intake may also mean you’ll add on weight slower. But you still won’t be able to use it so you can function whether it’s there or not. And it is still in the blood stream and the body can’t dispel it or use it so it turns it into fat.

I thought one of the symptoms of diabetes was unexplained weight loss?
In other words: I am so screwed.
