Metformin - smelly pills and other side effects (tmi)

Newbie - also new to Metformin today...
Hi Everyone, I joined the board a bit of time ago because I always suspected PCOS, doctor confirmed last week, and after looking at new bloodwork again this morning mixed with my history, signs, ultrasound and a recommendation from a gynecologist we decided to give Metformin a try.

Who is familiar or uses IIFYM? Is this right?

Level 2 Chatter
I rested a day after finishing 10 days of level 1, just finished level 2. I have to say...I like level two workout better than level one but it certainly has kicked my butt!

I'm wanting to get back into the weight section at the gym and I am wanting to be able to do it on my own and feel 100% comfortable. The gym…
