When I first started taking Met, I lost 30 lbs in two months with changing my diet and adding in a little exercise. By a little, I mean walking at least 2 miles every other day and getting on ab lounger, doing 30 crunches every other day.
I was then referred to a gyn because of severe pelvic pain, and after an ultra sound, she found a small fibroid. She took me off of the Met to try me on Yaz, and I started to gain the weight back. We added Met back into the picture, but I was still gaining with the Yaz. Finally, with the complications from the fibroid and other family problems, I gave up on both. I gained back all of my original weight.
After a year of battling with the fibroid, and visiting a dr in local ER, who diagnosed me with Menstrual Cramps, I had had enough. My uterus was taken in March. Now I am back on the Met, but haven't been exercising because of after surgery restrictions. I am hoping that I have the same success I had before.
