How To Get Off A Weight Loss Plateau With Insulin Resistance?
I am on metformin for insulin resistance and have PCOS. I was losing weight steadily for 6 months, and have since hit a one month plateau of no loss (and no gain). I tried increasing vegetables and reducing sugar even more, as well as keeping up with exercise, but it seems to keep me the same and not lose.
Any ideas for coming off the plateau? The doctor recommended coming off metformin for 2 weeks and then restarting. Does that work? Any other ideas?
Metformin For Insulin Resistance In Achieving Weight Loss: How Long Does It Take To Work?
I have been diagnosed with insulin resistance and have been prescribed 2500 mg metformin daily.
Many ppl with PCOS, metabolic syndrome, or insulin resistance lose weight bc their insulin isnt working properly without the aid of metformin or the like. I have been on it for over a week and have not lost any weight.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced weight loss after a couple weeks, rather than immediately.
