it will bet better in time. How much time they don't know, the drug is too new and they don't have enough experience with it to know. Yes, my sugars are down, and I have lost 7 pounds in 7 says, not a safe rate of weight loss. Frankly, I feel like something the cat coughed upoand I am wondering if it is worth it if the side effects don't end soon. So, my fellow diabetics,is there anybody out there who has been injecting this medication and has been down this road? I Know everyone is an indvidual but how long does this nausa and vomiting last?

Have you found that you are more prone to hypos in the cold weather?
I have not been diagnosed that long (about 5 months) so this is all new to me. I have good control most of the time but in the mornings I have been going hypo. I saw my doctor and she stopped my morning meds (Metformin 500ms) and told me just to take the evening dose. My levels settled nicely, then it got colder and suddenly i'm going hypo again! Yesterday I was standing waiting for a bus and felt a bit strange, I did a blood test and I was down to 3.4 mmol. Luckily I had some glucose tabs in my bag to remedy the hypo. Is this usual? Do I just need to increse my low GI carbs in the morning? Is there any other way to cope with it? Lots of questions!!!! lol
All help will be appreciated.

I've been following SBD faithfully for three weeks and have gained 4 pounds--trying to lose about 60 lbs. I walk 3 miles3xs a week and go to the gym to swim about 2 miles a week? Why do you think I am gaining?
I have been eating small meals instead of 3 large ones but all carb-less!

After two weeks of blood sugars being over 200 and learning to adjust to insulin and starving myself and tears and frustration I came home from work and tested my sugars and I am at 85. Finally some results. I have been coming in Answers everyday and gleaning info from all of you. I know this isn't really a question but I just wanted to share with all my fellow diabetics.
