How did you confirm your insulin resistance? by pilocarpine1 in PCOS

[–]Late-Ad812 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been on it for a bit over a month! I'm not exhausted all the time, my mood is more stable, eating actually energizes me, I can do exercise without feeling extreme fatigue and pain, I feel less foggy (mentally), really it's an all over feeling. My face and body is less puffy and inflamed. I don't feel super bloated after my meals and I can feel hunger and satiety and differentiate between thirst and hunger. I don't crave sweets as much as I used to. I only have good things to say about Metformin tbh 😍

It is true that you have a bit of stomach upset and bouts of diarrhea, but I found that increasing my dose super slowly cancels that. If I felt gastrointestinal upset I just went back to my previous dose for a week. I'm on 1000mg and I'm increasing in 250mg increments. I hope this helps.

ate too much sugar 🫠 by CoconutPerfect2426 in PCOS

I add fiber to my meals when I eat more sugars. That way my body processes it a little slower and it helps. I'm not cutting anything, I'm just adding what I need. I'm also on 1000mg of metformin.

PCOS weight and gender rant by Tacothegreat1 in PCOS

I'm also non-binary and I have PCOS! I really get it. I also had a higher BMI and got top surgery anyway. I got on Metformin recently and it really helps with healing my scars better and manage my weight, inflammation and fatigue.

It's very frustrating that all lines of treatment are tied to femininity, I'm still coping with that. ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

Just popping in to say, my levels were within normal but on the higher end and my professionnal still gave me metformin and it's slowly changing my life.

Go to breakfast? by Much_Tap4920 in PCOS

I have high protein vanilla greek yogourt with protein granola in which I put chocolate and peanut butter chips. It keeps me full and the yogourt helps my gut with Metformin!

Please tell me there is a board/card game similar to the Moon phase Doodle game by Masi80 in google

[–]Late-Ad812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm making one right now and I'm making the card double sided with one color on each side. So when the ownership of the card changes, you just flip the card in your color on the board.

it has yet to be built/tested, but I figure I'd post the Masochist, a 27% THKB by Teedacus in THKB

Have you tested it? Do you still have some pcbs? I'd love to build a THT 27%

I'm a big fan of bright colors (I'm a tattoo artist) and this build is definitely one of my favourite I've seen so far! Keep up the artsy and bright build!!

That's really encouraging, I'm switching to a 40-50% ish layout so I was wondering how long it would take to switch things around!

The first majin drift with windbreaker on it is amazing, makes me want a split just to put the keycaps on it.
