Overweight can be a side effect of Diabetes...(and not eating right can affect you getting Type II diabetes) I know diabetics (who don't handle their sugars properly) who have gotten heavily overweight. I know others who have watched their weight and reversed diabetes. But my Grandfather was rail-thin and had to take insulin the entire time I knew him. No hard and fast rules. It's a fun disease.
