| I'm on Metformin right now, but my goal is to come off the meds in the next year or so, if that's possible for me. I'm not sure how intense my insulin resistance is.
With 46 pounds down and a bunch more to go, I'm in this thing for the long haul. I look at the Met, right now, as a means to an end. Being on it now means I may be able to bring my numbers down low enough to quit it later on. Since I'm so woefully out of shape and hate exercising so badly (mostly because I'm so pathetic at it), I'm working up to a more intense exercise regimen, but it may take a while.
My BG numbers are improving, and I hope to get them to a near normal status in the next several months, as well.
