[QUOTE="Rachox, post: 2065564, member: 400972"] Hi K. From personal experience I would say that Metformin and a low carb diet have enabled me to lose 6 1/2 stone since I was diagnosed Type 2. The low carb diet has been a major factor but when I tried to drop my Metformin dose my weight loss stalled then when I increased it again my weight loss resumed. From reading around Metformin decreases appetite and I’ve also read that it affects the absorption of carbs. Here’s what this website says about it: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/diabetes-medication/metformin-weight-loss.html[/URL] Please also bear in mind what [USER=372207]@Antje77[/USER] says too though. Edit for typo [/QUOTE]
