Has anyone heard of people with Type 1 diabetes skipping insulin so they can eat a lot and lose weight? I read an article about some young girls doing this and injuring themselves. Have you heard about this?

I have never heard of it and I do not like the sound of it. It sounds very dangerous. I do not know anyone with Type 1 Diabetes. I think that may be the one that Hally Berry has. Maybe she can come out with a commercial and warn young children against doing that.

I haven't heard of this but that is a scared thought that people do this. It isn't worth risking your healthy to be thin. Scary!
