Hi
As the title says I'm still new and I'm struggling a bit! I am on 4 metformin a day an shave been trying to eat better. From June until about 3 weeks ago I was managing ok. I've not lost weight since diagnosis but I'm not massively over weight anyway. My issue is that before diagnosis I was craving sweet things really bad, like even changing out of pjs to go to the shop! I got the diagnosis and was brilliant. I started the metformin too. As I said no weight lost despite cutting the sweets. Now I am still taking the metformin but my god the cravings have come back tenfold ans I have a strange sweet taste in my mouth all the time. I'm giving in and eating liquorice all sorts ams diablo biscuits but I know it's still jot good for me. Why have I suddenly started craving again so bad! Has anyone else had this? My hba1c was 97 in June then 76 in august if that makes a difference.
Thank you
