Just struggling and trying to understand what causes my blood sugar to rise; and how to deal with work and insulin.

{answer}

My mom has recently had surgery and they put her on insulin shots to control blood sugars. Since then her appetite has increased and she is gaining weight. She was already overweight. Is the insulin causing the weight gain? Her activity level is about the same.

My dad whose a doctor says they gain weight over time, but online I read they lose weight so I am confused.
The person is a 25 year old woman. I read that 70% of women diagnosed with diabetes type 2 are obese to begin with. So will she lose weight overtime?

What other things to expect from 25 years old?

{answer}

I have just been diagnosed with type 2 but am at a healthy weight. A lot of what I have been reading cites weight gain as a symptom of diabetes but I can’t understand why (if your cells aren’t getting enough energy, they break down fat = weight loss??). Is it because it increases your appetite? Or is it not a symptom, but a cause?

If anyone could clear this up for me please?

My father is 58years old and healthy as far as I know, no diabetes, heart disease, etc. Around 8 years ago, he was operated for his cataract, but he is totally fine now (though he can’t carry heavy objects anymore).He also has no vices, just drinks like once to twice a month. He is also physically active, not really heavy but at least sweats from it. He wants to gain weight by following a diet plan, with meals for breakfats, etc. ope you can help. A link or personal opinion will be very helpful. Thank you!
