    I think the biggest reason I am freaking out is I think that if my hubby goes on insulin it will give him an excuse to quit trying to be under control. You know without meds, diet and exercise....I just hope he gets this under control!

    I'm not sure how true this is - but, my fear of insulin was that my problem (type II) is that my insulin was already too high. While I am sure that adding more insulin to the mix would reduce blood sugars - but it seemed counter-productive to "fix" insulin resistance by adding more insulin.

    And it seemed like this would be the beginning of a death spiral where I'd have to add more and more insulin while gaining weight and then needing more and more insulin, etc. I'm relatively young - I need a solution that will enable me to be around for 30+ more years. Addressing it with diet and exercise seemed like the way to avoid this "trap".
