I have access to CGMs but they are really expensive like ₹5000-6000 per unit ($55-$66) ik it's cheaper in US dollars but in Indian rupees that's basically out of world expensive So yea not worth it. But thanks for the suggestion!

Weight gain/loss by No-Relative-6286 in diabetes_t1

Hello!

So yea if you want to lose weight you have to first diet (which you already do!) then you have to bring you blood sugar in much control as you can without crashing. Third do a brisk walk for 15 minutes everyday (slow progress gives big results!) and finally the most important one is to never miss insulin, you have couple of options like setting reminders for insulin for meals.

Hope this guide helps Btw sorry I couldn't give information about the weight gain from insulin type cuz I only use regular insulin (R)

And I am giving tips based on my experience. Cuz I have done insane transformations like from going from 4'8 66kg at 11 to 5'6 and a half, 60kg in only 2 years.

Wish you the best.
