i’m very concerned about my 29 year old daughter’s health. she went on the pod about a year ago and has since gained all this weight. she is treated by the indian clinic (chickasaws) because she can’t qualify for health insurance. i’m not sure if she’s getting the proper care. please tell me if any of you have gained weight on the pod and why.
Answer
A lot of people gain weight when they go on an insulin pump, which a POD is. A Pod is a pump without any tubing. So the deal is when you get real good control of your blood sugars your body uses the calories the way it is supposed to and you can gain weight. The best thing to do is to consult a dietitian and get on a good well balanced diet to lose the excess weight.
