[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1664583, member: 355878"] I took Metformin and a statin and had all the side effects, one of which is memory loss, so there is a period of several months between diagnosis and about 10 months ago where I was in some sort of limbo, and if I did not write it down, I do not recall things very well. During the time I was eating a 'cholesterol reducing' diet I reached 264 lb but am down over 40lb now, just by eating a low carb diet which keeps my blood glucose in normal figures. For me a low carb diet means being a normal weight - but my HCPs do not accept that is the case and constantly try to get me onto low calorie diets, which basically cause me to collapse, white as a sheet and unable to even get the housework done. That started back when I was in my early 20s, when I weighed 147lb which was considered overweight even though I had a 24 inch waist. During my lifetime I have had to stay at 80gm of carbs a day even when being quite active, or put on weight. [/QUOTE]
