Julie I am definitely for the I Love Metformin Club. I have been a user of the Metformin for 4 years off and on. The first 2 years I lost a lot of weight. I wen from a 16 to a size 8. I stopped taking it and BLAM! I gained it all back and more. My PCOS was kicking in overtime. I was on the regular stuff and now on the extended release. I am taking only 1000 mg a day. 2 500mg pills a day. I take one in the morning with my breakfast and the other at dinnertime at work before I leave just in case I get sick I will not have to be in the bathroom all night. One thing that helped me was to take some of my pills to work and have them out right where I can see them so i would know to take it. Hope you do better than I Deveney.
