As a Medical Underwriter, I’ve also seen the rise of Metformin for weight loss over the last couple years.

I deal with weight loss. If I’m 200lbs a 14% would about 28 lbs.

So, after 68 weeks, they averaged about 15%.

Just about any wt loss program will guarantee you this much wt loss, in considerably less time.

The real weight loss, involves that next 15 to 30%, AND TO MAINTAIN IT.

I’m on Metformin for Type II Diabetes, and I give it some credit for getting me back down to 175 lbs. Granted, it looked better on me at 25 than 60, but still pretty good.

Game changer. That and keto. If I could have my 30 years back of struggle, things would have been so much better and a hell of lot happier.

Metformin was a game changer for my Dad who has mild diabetes. He’s in his 90’s now. My mom wasn’t prescribed it although her blood work was worse. She died before she was 70.
