[QUOTE="zand, post: 863185, member: 85197"] Are you still only taking Metformin? If you have your own meter you will be able to test to see how well you are doing. Metformin wouldn't normally give you a hypo as it works by reducing insulin resistance and supressing appetite, the resultant lowering of BG's is minimal with Metformin anyway. Obviously it would be best to have medical support, but as I said I was offered none. It's the sugars/carbs that put me off, but several people on this forum have had success with this type of diet. I suppose it really depends on what your diet is like now and how much weight you have to lose. [/QUOTE]
