I had an issue with Metformin. My doctor tried it as my starting medication because it worked well for my mother. However, it was causing my blood sugar to crash dramatically. I changed over to Glipizide. It’s not perfect, but it works a lot better than the Metformin did. ~Regards~

My guess would be a lot of muscle gain. It probably replaced any fat you lost.

Wow, congratulations on such a significant weight loss! I know what it’s like to be overweight your whole life; it’s definitely hard. It sounds like your body has hit that nasty plateau that everyone talks about. The only suggestions I can really give are to change up what you are eating and the type of exercise you are…

You mentioned that you eat the occasional banana, but I have heard you should eat a banana WHEN you get a charlie horse. People have said it will prompt almost immediate relief. I have not had a charlie horse since I was a child so unfortunately I cannot speak from personal experience. Regards, Mindy
