Default Glucophage woes!!

Well my doc is talking about me going on met...my question is how much weight have you lost while on met? i reliase that its not a weight loss drug but my doc said it will more than likely aid weight loss

also i feel a bit iffy about going on it purlery cuz of what i have heard about how sick it can make you

Any help or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi

I've been on Met for about 6 weeks now, and I've lost 14 pounds.

First off it made me feel really sick, but now all that seems to have gone.

I've been on glucophage for a little over a month now. I've lost eight pounds.
Of course, I did modify my diet- actually started following the one prescribed by my doctor a long time ago:o I don't feel hungry or with cravings all the time, as I did before.
