I posted my introduction in the wrong spot! just saw that lol. anyhow, londg story short... i was diagnosed with insulin resistance in october, dr has me on 1000mg metformin but that is more than likely gonna go higher dosage (dr appt next week)
I'm looking for the same thing everyone else is, support so far I've lost 6 pounds so 44 to go before i reach my first goal.

I have been forced to change eating pretty much because the met was making me sick for a while, it's not bad anymore but some smells still get to me really bad (mayo, ranch dressing, sour cream, roast beef, boiling chicken.. i have actually vomited a few times because certain things get me so nauseous!)

exercise I have severely neglected until this past week!
My husband was in afghanistan from dec 2011 - aug 2012 and somehow, over this summer i was getting up to walking 3 miles every day.. now i do good just getting a mile in! i can definitely tell i've gotten out of the groove. gotta get my butt back in gear and drop this weight!

Wow It is amazing to me that you can walk even a mile. I weigh 300 pounds and can barely walk around the block. Take it slow. You don't want to get injured like I did.

A half mile is the least I will allow myself to walk, I do weigh a lot but I know I can do more because I was doing 3 everyday over the summer.a mile is taking it easy for me. I also do cardio dance DVD and try to get in time on the Wii.

When I was walking the 3 miles still weighed in 370's.
