I need to start eating better and see if I can get those lbs off. Ideally I'd lose 10 lbs and then I'd be where I was a year ago when I started some health issues that messed me up.
It's probably lowering my blood sugar too but I'm on a small dose so not by too much. I feel safe that if we took the metformin away I'd still be ok.

I take metformin. Ive never lost weight with it. Everybody that sees im on it thinks I'm diabetic.
