Yes, predisone raises blood sugar...which causes more insulin, which makes you more resistant to it: Instant Ty II Diabetes.
BTW, Metformin will also raise your blood insulin levels.....thats what it's supposed to do. Lose the weight, and you'll probably be off of it.
AT 6'1" 175lbs I dont have a lot I can lose!
They say that the cockroaches will be the last creature alive on this earth.
I intend on being the last person alive still stomping cockroaches.
I can sympathize with you. I graduated HS in 1979, 6'3" and weighing 150 lbs, and try as hard as I could, I couldn't gain any weight. Now add a few years, a few ex-wives, ect. and now I'm still around the same height and weight 262. That's over 100 lbs of fat. People tell me I look fine and height/weight appropriate, but I can tell I'm over weight. The medical charts say I should only weigh 202, put I would be happy anywhere around 210-230.Originally Posted by AlphaTea

I stayed up all night to see where the sun went. Then it dawned on me.
Yeah, that was more for DomeGuy.
That is what I thought. I am 5 '11, and down to 149 lbs and still have about 14% body fat. I lost 25lbs and gained muscle.
