Hi Misslady,
I tried it for weight loss. Unfortunately it made my sugars too low because I am not a diabetic and I got all shaky. I had to stop taking it! It has helped others though. Just try it and keep an eye on yourself that's all.
Good luck and take care,

Yes, a lot of people lose weight on Metformin -I lost about 25 pounds in the first year, then the weight loss stopped. It helped. - EJ23

It has helped many people to loose weight. You can talk to your dr about it, and see what he says. If he has already ordered it, try it, it can work.
