Met Q?

[CazualDayDreamer]

I'm wondering if anyone has any information or personal experiences about weightloss and met? I just started about a week and a half ago and noticed some weight loss with just the med...about 3 pounds in a week.

I've been pretty luck with the side effects of the drug and am now starting to combine it with Atkins. I'm really just wondering if now that I'm on the meds I can look forward to taking off some of this 100 pounds that i lug around daily?

So if anyone has any personal experience about PCOS has effected they're weight I would really love to hear it. I'm sad about having the PCOS, but if it's part of the reason I have the weight, I'm happy to finally know it! :joy

Thank You for any information you choose to share...I would really appreciate it.

welcome to the board. :wave Several of our diabetics use met and as a matter of fact one just recently got switched to met and has a yippeeeeee post up. RHinhold is his name if you want to go read his topic. The met will greatly assist you with your Atkins if you were insulin ressitant which it sounds like from your already weight loss.

One thing you should know id you are relying on your PCOS as your means of Birth control you need to do something else as the Atkins and the met will heal your metabolism and allow your body to make more estrogen from the precusor androgen molecules.

HAppy low carbing.

thanks for the info....

And I'm really not relying on my PCOS as a form of birth control. LOL It has been a form of birth control for the past 5 years that I've been trying to get pregnant!

Me, my doctor, and my husband are working on getting me pregnant. So I'm glad to hear the the Atkins diet will help!
