Hello friend, wow ! 1000mg
Metformin for non diabetic concerns me. Are you sure you weren't diagnosed diabetic? Pre diabetic? I have never heard diabetic meds prescribed to non diabetics. I am diabetic 1000mg would gran slam my blood sugars low. I take 5mg Glip twice a day and still have low blood sugar 2/3 times per week. My latest A1c lab avg is 72 on meds,.
The trick to losing weight, which worked well for me was low carb diet and no sugar, without exercise I lost 70 lbs,.
