GOOD MORNING THE BEST ADVICE I CAN GIVE YOU IS THIS. I STARTED ON MET IN APRIL OF LAST YEAR. IT WAS SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE "I" ACTUALLY SAW THE RESULTS. MY MAX WEIGHT GOT UP TO 155. THAT MAY NOT SEEM ALOT TO YOU BUT FOR SOMEONE THAT IS ACTIVE DUTY AND RUNS 3 MILES 3 TIMES A DAY. THAT'S ALOT OF WEIGHT. BETWEEN LAST SUMMER AND THIS WINTER I LOST 22 LBS. I STILL HAVE A WAYS TO GO BUT THE MET REALLY HELPED. THE OTHER THING THAT HELP ME LOSE THE WEIGHT IS (1) STAY OFF OF THE SCALE (2) DON'T DIET - LEARN TO CONTROL WHAT YOU EAT. INSTEAD OF DIETING LEARN TO MODIFY YOUR EATING HABITS. JUDGE YOUR WEIGHT LOSS BY THE FIT OF YOUR CLOTHES OR HOW YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR. NOT MY THE SCALE. NOTHING IS MORE FRUSTRATING THAN GETTING ON THE SCALE EVERYDAY COUNTING POUNDS.

AFTER BEING ON MET FOR A FEW MONTHS AND HAVING CO-WORKINGS AND MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER COMMENT ABOUT THE APPEARANCE OF ME LOSING WEIGHT. I WENT INTO MY CLOSET AND TRIED ON SOME JEANS I HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET INTO FOR 2 YEARS. THAT MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE.

WOMEN TOO OFTEN MAKE THE MISTAKE OF LIVING ON THE SCALE. GETTING ON IT DAY AFTER DAY AFTER DAY. STARVING THEMSELVES BECAUSE THEY GAINED ONE POUND IN A DAY. BE PATIENT WITH THE MET AND STAY ACTIVE.

IF YOU HAVE A SCALE PUT IT AWAY!!!! IT'S YOUR ENEMY!!!! I PERSONALLY DON'T OWN ONE.

Hi-

Has anyone experienced weightloss with Met? How long did it take? I am started taaking 1000mg/day and within 4 days I got my period for the first time in 18 months, I had two normal cycles in a row after that- So the Met definately regulated me!! How long until I see weightloss? I have been on Met for 3 months!! Any info would be appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!

XOXOXO Kristin
