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?
