[QUOTE="Wendyanne, post: 122979, member: 24736"] Hi Paula,I am a newly diagonsed Type 2 as well and am on Metformin 1x500 twice daily.I had really bad stomache problems and Vomiting for the first week and let the DN know about the problem and she said to persevere for another five days which I did and since then have been fine apart from having a windy tummy which I can live with :lol: I am still trying to get my head round what I can and can't eat but so far since Nov09 have lost 1st.6lb in weight,{although i have only been on Metformin since the middle of January} I am following a low GI Diet,with plenty of fresh fruit and veggies and meat which I cut the fat off of and dry fry where possible.My Cholesterol is 4.8 and my Blood Pressure is 130/68 so must be doing something right, but my first HB a1C WAS 9.3 Hence the Type2 oh and apart from Urine testing have not got a meter yet as the DN nurse never mentioned one of those so will wait to see how my next blood test goes and take it from there. Good luck and Welcome to the forum :) [/QUOTE]
