obesity increases insulin resistance and thereby reduces the effectiveness of insulin.
Yes insulin and glucagon are antagonistic hormones, as they antagonize, or incite a reaction, the liver into transforming glucose into glycogen when the blood sugar levels are high (insulin), and transforming glycogen into glucose when the blood sugar levels are low (glucagon).

Insulin resistance and obesity
The Tagalog translation for "antagonize" is "nakikipag-away."
Obesity increases one's chances of having type 2 diabetes. Obesity can lead to insulin resistance, a hormone that is necessary for blood sugar management. When the body develops insulin resistance, sugar absorption in the blood is reduced or absent, resulting in elevated blood sugar levels. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed by losing merely 5 to 7% of your body weight.
1. I will antagonize you until you give me what I want. 2. Let's antagonize Jerry and make him cry.
Insulin resistance is caused by obesity and a family history of insulin resistance. You can develop insulin resistance without these, but it's rare. Insulin resistance leads to type 2 diabetes. A type 1 diabetic can develop insulin resistance the same way anyone else does, but becoming obese and by having insulin resistance in the family. In this case, the insulin resistance and the type 1 diabetes are totally unrelated.
It can lead to heart disease and diabetes.
