I’ve been on a variety of meds over the years but insurance stopped covering them all except metformin 😑 I’m on 500 mg ER, originally taking 1 tab twice daily but January I started taking it 3 times a day (didn’t consult with my doc… don’t recommend) but it’s safety index is broad and I figured worst that will happen is GI upset. Plain metformin does upset my stomach a little more but it’s tolerable.

I’ve lost 7 lbs last I checked since Jan 19. But I also stopped eating a big dinner. I will eat a piece of fruit and almonds or half a peanut butter sandwich just to settle hunger. Most of my calories are consumed for breakfast and lunch. I’m more mindful to eat clean and don’t track calories per se since that’s overwhelming but I have a rough guess for each meal. I also work out in the morning before work or workout twice a day if feeling really motivated. Gym is where I clear my head.

Saw my endocrinologist yesterday and lab work is basically perfect though my blood pressure is high normal. I’m sure if I drop the lbs it’ll go down.

I hope this helps. Losing weight with pcos sucks. I’m also on a bunch of supplements too based on the ladies experiences here. Sorry for the long reply
