[QUOTE="Cloudlesssky, post: 889672, member: 130484"] Great thread, guys, as I guess that there are many of us in the same position. Its lovely to be able to talk to people who are honest about themselves and their diabetes; I really appreciate you all. I am 5 foot 3ins and weigh 16stone. I need desperately to lose 4 stone - then pause and continue down another couple - then pause and so on ... Metformin x2 twice a day, and like many of you have said, it has had a quite severe affect on bowel movements! I now take 3 tablets a day and only 4 on days I know the results won't complicate my life - which isn't ideal... I lost weight prior to diagnosis in September but nothing since. However, I know I do not control my carbs and sugars well enough. Any ideas and support (or warnings) welcomed. Love to hear from you all :) ;) o_O [/QUOTE]
