Metformin girls

Do you cheat once in a while with carbs? Chat Icon

I have to admit, over the past 3 mos. I have been reallly good - since I am a carb addict - but every now and then I will give in and have a bite of pasta or mashed potatoes. A bite!!

Now, the punishment for that...a different story! Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Metformin girls

OMG, I eat tons of carbs on Metformin. I guess that's why I'm not losing any weight Chat Icon

Re: Metformin girls

If i eat like 1/2 slice of bread I have a problem!

I like it though....I've lost about 10 lbs in 3 months...that may seem like not a lot but to me it's great bc my weight would not budge for yearrssss.

I told you the other day, you look great! I think it's a combination of everything you are doing to get yourself ready for this cycle! Chat Icon

I did cheat once in a while, and would have adverse affects Chat Icon But those affects wore off the longer I was on the Met. But I did manage to lose 30lbs over the course of the year that I was on it. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Metformin girls

I think everyone reacts differently to it -
The ONLY thing I noticed would set me off for misery was too much Sugar or alcohol (usually wine, I was fine w/ Scotch)

The carbs didn't really bother me -

Re: Metformin girls

Carbs don't bother me as much as fat, grease and oil does.

I had pepperoni pizza for dinner tonight and know I'm going to pay for it later.

Re: Metformin girls

In my experience, I found that if I combined my carbs with some protein, it kept me from having any adverse effects. Carb-only meals caused problems.

Like, if I ate just a bagel for breakfast, I paid for it. If I ate half a bagel with a small yogurt, I was fine.
