[QUOTE="Monty010467, post: 671237, member: 31732"] I just watched/listened to the lecture, fascinating and very very important! this should be communicated as widely as possible! I think I am an example of the lower end of the scale where weight gain on a thin, low BMI frame has pushed me into T2! However I have dropped from around 15st to 11st 10lb around 22% (BMI 22) set against the studies findings of 15% being effective and whilst I have ok HbA1C (6.0ish) I still have the impaired insulin response and continue to take 2000mg Metformin a day! I have dropped my weight through endurance sport (Triathlon) and calorie deficit over around a two year period (Not 8 weeks) and I am fitter than I have ever been with a measured body fat content of around 10 to 12% and a resting heart rate of around 45 Bpm I can get no sense from my GP and they will not refer me to specialist and I have some questions that maybe someone here can help me with? 1. Can you become exercise resistant? 2. Is it possible with my stats above that I still have a fatty liver and Pancreas? 3. Could Metformin now be interfering with my Liver functioning properly? Many thanks for reading and I am hopeful of some insights? All the best Graeme [/QUOTE]
