@wildflowerchild25 , I have gained weight on my meds but recently re-started metformin, so I'm hopeful that it helps in addition to eating healthier and exercising some . I'm not diabetic but metformin is sometimes used to combat weight gain from APs. I used to be on it a year or so ago and lost 25lbs while on it. It seems to help with the constant hunger I get from my meds.

Also your Thanksgiving dinner sounds delicious
