My husband, who has been 50 plus pounds overweight for more than a decade, was diagnosed last March. The metformin made him so nauseous for weeks that he was able to lose 40 pounds without trying, and as his appetite came back has been much more careful about what and how much he eats. He's lost all the weight, and feels much better. He's a 25% of the initial metformin prescribed and half the insulin, with hopes of lowering the amounts even more.

Eat right, weight control, exercise, fresh air...it makes all the difference. I'm not saying it's easy but it sure is better than feeling miserable and being sick.
