20 is better than "0"
if you've followed my blog, you know the story. Undiagnosed thyroid disease leads to huge weight gain leads to other health problems. No matter how many hours I spend in the gym, unable to lose any weight. Finally diagnosed as "insulin resistant" by a female endocrinologist last month (explaining the inability to lose weight despite my efforts.) Put on Metformin- combination of 1-2 hr nightly workouts and exclusion of foods that are not DIABETIC FRIENDLY (I miss you, coke.) I am finally down 20 pounds from my highest weight of 237. I have a long way to go (another 70 before I can go off metformin) but at least I have progress. Finally. Am THRILLED. (breathes)
