[QUOTE="chalup, post: 1186143, member: 306126"] Hello and welcome. I will start by saying that I am not a doctor and this is only my opinion. Metformin dosage does not have to be all or nothing, I would talk to my doctor about maybe going back to 1 pill per day and taking things a lot slower. In the end the decision on whether to take a med or not is yours. In the meantime you should be testing yourself at home if you are not already and that will tell you if the metformin is helping or not. As to you causing this, there is more and more evidence all the time that the underlying metabolic issues cause the weight gain and hunger and carb addiction which make the metabolic issues worse. Vicious circle that. You know you have lived a healthy life so don't let ignorance like that bother you. You already have the diet figured out so you are ahead of the game. Best wishes to you [/QUOTE]
