is this normal?

Thanks

I think it varies with the individual but many people report weight loss when taking metformin and adopting low/moderate carbs. I take the same dose as you and have lost 5.5 kg ( about 12lbs) in 32 days. Keep at it and I suspect you will see loss....mine started to come off in week 2. Gone from BMI overweight to (just) inside normal
cheers
