To avoid weight gain you have to control your diet which should be low in calory, high in fibres and sugar free.
Second most important thing is regular execise which is must for weight control.
Insulin is last option in type two diabetes control. There are several medicines with different mechanisms to control diabetes. You can discuss with your Physician.
It is not necessary to continue with insulin lifelong. It can be stopped also if your doctor thinks so.

You are having type 1 diabetes and are on the correct regimen of insulin. type 1 diabetics require to compulsorily take insulin thrice a day. although there are insulins avaliable which are effective for the entire day, just taking that one shot wont be enough in your case and you may land up with complications. People who are on one shot of insulin in a day are having a completely different type of diabetes, one in which tablets are also useful.
