going down, some times after taking the drugs the weight increase
stoped but most times the weight is still increasing.

- The drugs that she take now:

.. Insulin Analogue (Homologue)
.. Lantos Insulin


Finally,

What? That's more than 35 kilos a year! No way is she gaining that fast,
unless she is seriously binge dieting to take it back off at intervals, or
deliberately going without insulin for various periods to avoid weight gain.

If she's a Type 1, those are pretty standard and she will absolutely require
insulin of some type. In the US, they're called "Humalog" and "Lantus".

They're not given to control weight: they're given to allow her to survive,
by allowing her body to successfully use glucose from the food she eats and
use it for energy.

Diet and exercise are the key. If her blood sugar is bouncing, she probably
needs better control. Getting her blood sugar to as close to human normal as
feasible should help reduce excess appetite and bouncing blood sugars, and
regular blood sugar testing is absolutely key to that.

I'm unsure: but she's 15 years old. *SHE* should be the one here asking
questions and learning. She could tell us, for example, if she really is an
unhealthy weight and worried about it, or whether she's also 1.9 meters tall
and a slender, over-muscled athlete. A lot of people get really obsessed
about their weight and cause some really destructive behavior, like sneaking
food and lying about blood sugar tests.

And I sympathize with your concerns. I remember surviving my teen years as a
diabetic, and my 4 year old daughter was recently also diagnosed Type 1. I
hope that she's doing well otherwise, and that the diabetes and possibly
spare weight are not interfering with her having a full and interesting
life.

Well, something is wrong with the story. My husband has been an insulin
dependent diabetic (Type 1) for 25 years. He is of normal healthy
weight - because he controls his intake. He doesn't eat a draconian
specialized diet - just healthy stuff, the way all of us should eat,
and he strictly controls his own intake of sugary, fatty, or starchy
foods. He works hard to keep his weight in a good range.

If this girl is gaining too much weight, she's eating too much, period.

If she is using Humalog and Lantus at age 15 she most likely a type 1
diabetic. She should be following her doctor's advice. Not second
hand advice filtered through you that you get off the net.

Your intentions are good, but the potential for life threatening
mistakes is far too high.
