Hey everyone. I just wanted to say that I've been taking 1,000 mg of Metformin per day for over 2 years. I'm a type II diabetic and overweight. But I have continuously lost weight. I was first on NutriSystem and yes it did work, but after a month of it I couldn't stomach the food any longer. I now keep to the diabetic diet and my weight has been coming off slowly but I've been told that's the best way to go. My RE has only asked me to lose 10lbs, but believe me I have a lot more to go. So he is very supportive and the nurses are wonderful. My advice would be to find another RE who is supportive. Because with everything else we all are going through to conceive, we don't need a Dr. telling us something we already know about our weight. Think happy thoughts!
