I imagine that others will say: what envy!But of course the other extreme can also be very annoying.

I think there is thyroid tests that could indicate if there is something that makes your metabolism more accelerated than normal and do not accumulate any fat.The truth is that with 165 high a couple of kilos would be good for you.

You already know that excess carbohydrates, which are not spent, in most people become fat.You can try to increase carbohydrate intake, but of course that will mean more insulin and maybe some mismatch.You can also try to eat more fat regularly, not saturated, and see if you get fat.

But I would start with the endocrine and see the origin.Nor would it be good to try to gain weight create another problem.

Ah, also try muscles regularly.That could also help you.Even if you don't like it.

All the best

Thank you very much Jldiazdel, I thought of the shakes to increase, but my endocrine told me no, that they all carry a lot of sugar even if they say 0.0, I would even see hydrates to see if I do not dislike much, thank you.

It happens to me the same, I find it hard to get weight but since I exercise more I have taken and I have the most slender body, not so thin and fofo.I would recommend that, exercise, both anaerobic and aerobic, with weight and without weight.And in the food it eats more nuts, kitchen with more fat and turn all extra virgin olive oil.

I was going to tell you that maybe doing some musculature ...
If your Constitution is to be thin unless you have a processed food (something you are not going to do, hahaha) then ...
I could upside down.It was thin, normal, going.But so much insu, thyroidism ... Not at most, I am not obese either ... but with diabetes you can't do crazy things (both to gain weight and lose weight).
It sounds topical but the best thing is that you values ​​how you are.Surely you are beautiful!We are always the most critical of ourselves!
Cheer up!

Thanks Silvia, I'm really a bit perfectionist, but this thinness is too much, I'll try everything, thanks.

The olive oil had also told me, the nuts rise a little, but I continue with them between hours

Good, I really have always been very thin and I have treated my whole life to take something of passage without result.When I debuted three years ago with DT1 I lost more weight with what I self -looked and the comments, which I have always had some of some reckless, multiplied.
For a year, I have more controlled, 6.3 in the last one (although I have had it more or less controlled from the beginning), I make more musculation and less aerobic, some swimming or a little tape but without happening,I have increased some muscle and weight and this summer they told me that they saw me very well.
I, as it is quite well, is constitution and point, is not a matter of swelling

I really are the only way that could increase something, good control avoiding many declines, some musculation, not too aerobic ... The bad thing about this is that it is necessary to have time or look for it because it can also be done at home.If not, then nothing, get to the idea of ​​what is there and feel good
