OK, this is NOT how i have been "explaining it" indeed because it is NOT quite how i "understood it" from the diabetologist - almost backwards in fact? ... i suppose there had to be some misunderstanding but here's an intersting article that explains a few mechanisms.

i still don't frankly get the hunger but i think that has to do with your body not being able to burn sugar... i have read that being hungry a lot and thirsty (plus other signs, not that alone) happens during diabetes onset.... mind you i feel very non-credible right now so don't mind me. just read the article, or sections of it as you see fit.
