Exclamation Update on me since starting met!

I started met once a day 500mg on the 25th of October. On the 1st of November I went up to twice a day. I Finally got a Cycle with NO Other meds on the 25th of November. I am hoping that this means the Met is working well and my body is starting to change. I still have some side effects like diarhea(not every day but most days). I also seem to never be hungry. I basically force myself to eat just because I have to when taking the met plus You can't go all day without eating..LOL. I have never been a big eater but now its even less. Today for instance I had some T-day leftovers( some stuffing and turnip) and I also had ONE slice of pizza(at lunch) and that was it. No appetite at all. Actually just thinking of food makes me feel sick most times. However I always seem to be thirsty. I have always been a MT. Dew Drinker and If I could just Give that up I think I would Definately Lose weight alot faster. Its my Addiction. I am not giving up hope that I will be able to give it up though and I am NOT going off the met even with the side effects. For a Better future for Me I have to stay on it is what I say every day to myself. I have not given up hope that eventually I will conceive..After I lose more weight. Thanks for listening! I wish everyone great success with met!

Sounds like met is working...I would try limiting the Mountain Dew and maybe adding Club Soda or water to it...I know it sounds gross but this way you'll be able to cut down and ween yourself off of it.

I noticed a lack of appetite once I was up to my full dosage, the trick is to eat healthy and even if you are not hungry still try and eat.

All the best!
