1. I eat and drink much less than pre Met. However, I still crave carbs i.e. bagel, muffin. However I eat less than pre-Met.

2. I take Spirinolactone in addition to the Met.

3. I do excerise. Not as much over the summer but I have been exercising since last August. That is where I lost the 6 lbs.

4. Not more than usual. When I first started Met, I was exhausted.

5. I was tested for thyroid years ago (pre PCOS treatement) I do not think I have any other problems.

I do want to lose 25 - 35 lbs. I am 220 and want to be 190. Atleast below 200, I am 5'9" tall, so it does not look horrible on me but I don't feel great. I plan to return full speed ahead to the gym on Sept 1st. (4 nights per week)
