HI Joe Mama

I took metformin, well actually glucophage cuz metformin killed my stomache, and I took the extended release, 500 mg a day for 2 months. It did aid in some weight loss but I still had to work for it. I did stop taking it though after 2 months. I took it in the evening with dinner. I usually would wake up feelin almost hypoglycemic in the mornings though, didn't like that. I think that's it's a great way to help aid in weight loss, but i don't believe in taking it long term.... unless you are truly diabetic.....Kat
