[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2126404, member: 355878"] I was so ill taking just one tablet of Metformin - I think I managed to take two on two days, not consecutively. I was better off not taking it. If you are having no bad effects then just take them with what meals you feel the need of. No need to eat three times a day - some people do just one meal a day. I find that my BG levels are good on two - I suspect that I was close to, or fully diabetic for a very long time before diagnosis - and that it was only some sort of clerical error which resulted in diagnosis - I was due a test for the Thyroxine supplementation. No breakfast cereal - no grain of any sort except small amounts of Livlife bread which is 4 gm per slice. Low carb veges, loads of salad stuff are all I need. I have not felt real hunger all the time I have been eating low carb - show me a plate with beef steak, mushrooms, green sweet pepper, tomato, courgette, cauliflower and I can soon develop an appetite though.
