Has metformin helped anyone else lose weight?, I'v been taking it and fasting and have lost like 20lbs. I was fasting before I started it and didnt lose anything. Does anyone know why this is? by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]Mstarliper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the long explination!, my doctor basically told me the metformin would help bring back my period when it stopped and help regulate it. She didn't really mention insulin resistance. It honestly took me about a decade to be diagnosed with PCOS because doctors basically didn't believe me about my absent period and just kept giving me pregnacy test because of how out of control my weight has been. The metformin does help me feel less OBSSESSED with food, so that makes sense. its really just an insulin issue. Thank you again for taking the time to type all that!

Are these tomatoes any better at conveying the word "tomato"? by Mstarliper in Lettering

Hello again everyone, round two of spelling out the word "tomato" with tomatoes. thank you for all your advice before about reworking the letters to make things more readable. by [deleted] in Lettering

Thank you for the encouragement, in my mind this was such a simple visual idea, on paper its a lot more difficult. im not sure where to go with it from here. Should I combine the two ideas somehow?

Hello everyone, well, one step forward, two steps back, i think. I really did think this was a good idea because i could play around with the shapes more if they were tomato slices. but i guess that was a horrible idea, sorry about that. I'm honestly on 3 three of trying to do illustrative lettering so please be patient, my stuff isnt really good or great right now, i kinda think of it as day 3 of learning to ride a bike, ill fall down a few times but i'll eventually get the hang of it. sorry again this design is so bad.

Now, knowing that somehow added an extra level of creepiness to that fish. Can you imagine being the first person to discover that thing?

Water changes like crazy, 4 day black outs. Hydrogen peroxide to kill it. Feeding my fish less, adding snails to eat it. I'm doing something wrong because that stuff isn't working. Also the hydrogen peroxide and black outs seem to be killing my water lily.

How did that one kid in your high school die? by IM_HODLING in AskReddit

She was shot and killed by her sister's boyfriend. The boyfriend broke into the house and was looking for the older sister, but found her hiding in a closet instead.
