[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 1914101, member: 256617"] You could ask your surgery for slow release Metformin. Alternatively you can do LCHF to reduce blood glucose / fatty liver (Metformin reduces liver dumps primarily and is said to have 3rd party protective measurements); more aggressive resolution of issues can be achieved by going lower carb than LCHF (between around 50 grams to 100 grams of carbs per day) by going Keto (around 50 grams or less of carbs). Adding Intermittent Fasting e.g. 16 / 8 or 16 / 6 for example (eating all meals within an 8 / 6 hour window) can make further reductions alongside exercise. Once I removed Metformin I never have re-introduced. If you choose this route just measure your blood sugars to check you are at least as managed as before stopping. [/QUOTE]
