I take Atenolol and i'm losing weight ok.

I was diagnosed 6 weeks ago and told to keep eating starch carbs with every meal and prescribed Metformin 2000mg's, i took it and was really bad on it (gastro side effects) and started researching myself about low carb, i stopped eating added sugar, rice, pasta potatoes and bread although i have re-added brown bread once a…

I lost my first 2 stone just walking my Husky, i then started calorie counting now i'm carb counting and have 3 huskies to walk plus my daily workouts but walking is a much better exercise than people think, i could barely do anything when i started walking and would be exhausted after walking 4.4 miles with my dog, i now…
