[QUOTE="HpprKM, post: 185173, member: 14660"] I am semi low carbing - that is trying to eat smaller portions and buy use low Gi products where possible. However, I am not overweight and since being on two x 250 metformin a day I have been losing weight, having gone from size 14 to 12 (I assume due to lack of sweet things - which I did have a penchant for), now my size 12 trousers are loose - I am somewhat concerned that a strict low carb diet will lower my weight even further - I know there are many people who will find this an 'antagonising' statement. My own daughter who has thyroid issues has little sympathy for my weight loss and cannot understand my complaints - but it can be a serious issue - especially since I discovered that Metformin can be an appetite suppressor and even lead to anorexia (I assume in extreme form). But have noticed my appetite is not what it used to be, I can eat but never really feel hungry. [/QUOTE]
