my body is going crazy need advice...
Hello Ive been diagnosed with IR at the beginning of june 2007, i am currently taking metformin 850 2x a day. My concern is that the first two weeks of my treatment I disregarded any type of diet and I actually overloaded on everything in sight, specially sugar... and at the end of those two weeks I lost 3 pounds. Regardless of the weighloss I decided to eat like a normal human being, so I started to eat healthier after that for like 3 weeks, when I weighed myself I was 1 pound heavier. Now I knew that I had to do something different so I started the Insulin resistance and after one week I gained 1 pound even though I have been doing cardio 6 days of that week for about 40 min and I followed the diet step by step( no more than 1500 cal and only 30g or less carbs per meal with 15 g protein, only like 5 meal a day)... I dont know what is happening. But my major concern is that a couple days back I went to a buffet because I was mad that the IR diet was not working and I ate 2 plates of main food and one whole plate of dessert... I AM NOT KIDDING and the next day I was 1/2 lb lighter... Now I am really confused. It seems that whenever I eat high sugar foods and take metformin I lose weight, but if I eat healthy and watch my carbs and take metformin weight actually goes up... Does someone have a similar problem?????
