  • Is anyone else Insulin Resistant? anyone on metformin?

    Is anyone else Insulin Resistant? And - if you are - have you noticed that it took a bit longer for you to start losing weight?...

    I'm on day 6 of Induction and physically I feel so much better than I have in the past 6 months when I'd get sick after almost every high carb meal...(i'm on metformin too).

    I haven't gotten sick once - and I really love this plan so I refuse to quit - and I understand it may take a while longer to START losing weight,
    but have any of you who ARE IR or even on Metformin - did it take you a while for your body to adjust?

    I put my scale away yesterday so I can NOT get to it until Sunday (weigh in day).

    but I'd just like to know if anyone else IS IR and had a slow start too...

    I take metformin 2x per day 1000mg each time. I am now actually a type 2 diabetic, which is great motivation to not cheat!

    I have had uneven weightloss, but it is happening, 40 pounds in 67 days, so not bad.

    I have been a diagnosed diabetic for 68 days and quickly returned to eating this way.

    I still have side effects from metformin, but i can deal with them. I am keeping my blood sugar around 110 all the time now. It's all good now!
