Answers:
116 pounds is ok- but the weight is irrelevant compared to controlling blood glucose levels!. I've seen several diabetics who are normal weight and have huge problems!. Even if you are a normal weight, you can still develop kidney, heart, vascular problems, etc!.!.!.!. I would be careful eating "alot" , especially if you are a type 1!. This can cause diabetic ketoacidosis!. You would lose weight, but would become deathly ill and require hospitalization!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

You didn't say how tall you are!. If you are under 4'8'' you weigh a lot, but if you at least 5' tall you are okay!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yeah it's fine!. I'm diabetic too!. I weigh a little less than that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
