[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2401715, member: 493719"] Hi [USER=543265]@Patricia B[/USER] Hugs for the "issues" Sounds very unpleasant. One of the luckier ones I never had any issues with Met. Great answers already above A 2nd for the food choices..:wideyed: Hopefully a helpful note Liking the food from scratch, it's what I now do, but I guess it depends WHAT you're cooking from scratch. A nice steak & brocolli ..nom nom nom. Spaghetti or rice dishes..:arghh: As for calories, I gave up counting calories and only count carbs these days Low cal, low fat...mmh I tried a that immediately after being diagnosed, made the HBA1c worse...and left me starving hungry for 6 weeks. Came here, dipped a toe into the LCHF diet. Lost 3 stone and in 3 months got HBA1C down from 57 to 42, all while eating good food, that filled me up. Takes time to adapt, but we got a lifetime of time, right.;) Good luck with grappling with the Metformin. I'd agree that if it's still an issue, the diet route makes the most impact anyway, So if you can't tolerate Metformin but do amend the food intake, you'll still likely to get good results. [/QUOTE]
