That's what I did and at least for me it's really a good way to go. I just found again a couple of articles about studies on the topic.
Insulin the First Treatment Choice for Newly Diagnosed Type 2?s
Research Points to New Way to Treat Type 2 Diabetes: Insulin First
In general, diabetics that did use insulin from the start gained less weight and were more satisfied with their treatment.
I read up on the possible side effects of some of the oral medications and they are a little strange. Insulin is quite natural compared to them.
Anyway, not trying to say everyone should do it that way. It's just that you hear a lot of negative things about insulin that aren't true, like the weight gain I bolded.
best wishes
