[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 142898, member: 18023"] I have been taking ~1000 mg of metformin ER for the last 5 months. Once in a while I take 1500 mg. I have decided to stop taking metformin and see how it affects my cardio and blood glucose. I was able to lower my A1C from 5.8 > 5.2, but not at all sure how much the Met was responsible and how much watching diet / losing weight was responsible for better glucose control. I would credit metformin for reducing my appetite making it easier to lose weight and it did seem to help reduce BG. But now it seems like I can more easily control BG without metformin. I have read lifestyle changes are even more effective than metformin for BG and anti-aging. Partly I am just curious how not taking Metformin will work out for exercise, peak heart rate and BG. Right now it's been 13 days since I stopped metformin. BG seems OK. [/QUOTE]
