diabetes, type 2
"I have been using Metformin for 3 months to aggressively treat my pre-diabetic condition.  Together with a lower-carb (185-200 mg per day/1700 calories) I have lost 29 pounds.  This  is about double the weight loss rate I had on the diet alone.  The only side effect I have experienced is a loose stool once or twice a week.  Definitely a good trade-off! I am a 49 year old female, moderately active who has had a hysterectomy."
