Aloha Ya'll

I just joined this board today after searching all over the internet about diabetes, weight gain and loss, diet pills, affects of diabetic meds, etc....

I've was diagnosed as type II after a terrible battle with spinal miningitis, like there is a good battle... That was two years ago and was placed on Metformin. I'm not taking alot, 500mg, once a day, but have gained some weight and not happy about it at all. Not sure if it is the meds or my life style changing, or me getting older...etc..

I'm pretty sure if I were to drop down to 165 (currently 210) I could probably get off the metformin all together.

Well, that is about it for now... Just saying hello....

Jeff

Hi Jeff and welcome here. How is your control on the Metformin?
