I'm interested in knowing which one you went on Actos or Avandia and were you initially trying to lose with diet and exercise w/being on Actos and Avandia. In case I go on it, what you told me re: it took 5 months is good for me to know! If you tell me you were dieting and exercising with Actos and Avandia and still gained, I don't think I will switch, because the last thing I want to do is gain weight - its taking my 10 years to lose! I'm finally at a nice point! Did the Actos/Avandia make your insulin come down or, again, was it because you were dieting and exercise? Last Question,like you said, not everyone gains, thats true - everybody is different - have you known anyone else on this board that I can ask re: the weight loss on Avandia or Actos? Thank you in advance!
