Dinah, I take glucophage. I haven't lost weight spontaneously on it, BUT the combo of glucophage and moderate exercise has great results for me. Of course, I haven't really exercised in months and months (I am supporting the gym with my monthly direct debit donations, though!). But even without exercise, I think my weight has stayed stable rather than gaining, which would have happened without the glucophage.
My dad had transient diabetes for a couple of years but improved diet and exercise has helped a lot for him. At 82, he goes for his workout every Monday through Friday. Much better than his daughter half his age!
