Hi Lois. Most oral diabetes meds are stallers. The exception is Glucophage (metformin.) It helps improve insulin resistance. Perhaps you can talk to your doctor about that.

I think you might have missed Lisa N's post... I noticed you started a new thread.

I hope the suggestions you got answered your questions... there's really not much else we can add. You're already losing weight at a decent pace. Try to follow the plan to the letter - 3 cups of veggies and less processed meat - and talk to your doctor about your medications. Browse the "veggies and side dishes" forum for recipe ideas. I'm picky, too, but I've discovered veggies that I love.

Good luck.
