Re: PCOS-DIET digest 833

I'm not seeing any weight loss on Metformin. I've been on it since March,
2002. I take 850mg 3xday. I try to watch carbs and exercise some. I've had
PCOS for many years, and last March finally found a Dr. who does research in
this field. My sugar level was at a Glucose intolerance level. It is better
now and I do feel better than I did before taking Met. Any answer to help
with weight loss ?? I need to lose about 80#. Thanks, MMM
