Hey gals,

I was diagnosed when I was 14, my parents didn't tell me much about my condition until i was 16 though. They helped me eat right but didn't want to scare me with the details until I was older. My endocrinologist a few days ago decided to out me on Met. Is anyone younger on met that had a serious wight gain. Since i started college, i have gained 20 more pounds than I had already gained. I would like to loose almost 50 at this point. I exercise between 3-5 days a week for an hour. Did anyone find that Met helped with the weight loss? I'm frustrated!!!!!

This is just fabulous.... here I am about to start taking metformin tomorrow.... and you are saying that it made you gain weight?!?!?!?! this is just one more thing i need to go wrong with me!! hahaha

im sorry im not trying to be mean or anything!!
I am just so nervous that when i start met tomorrow im going to have the horrible side effects and i will eventually die!! haha

however, ive always heard that met makes you lose weight?? you seriously are the first person i have heard of htat its made gain weight!! so with my luck that will happen to me also!

good luck tho with the weight and the 50 lbs i started the south beach diet two weeks ago and so far im down 12 lbs!! you should try it out... the results are phenominal!
