No, the metformin did the total opposite to me.  It made me not want to eat at all.

OMG!!  that is totally me.  yes, it has made me so hungry. Yesterday i went to a buffet dinner. ate two helpings and a piece of cake... came home and wanted more???  ever since i started metformin i have been so hungry.  i try not to eat, but i will get a bad head ache and moody.  once i have eaten im ok.  this only started when i started the metformin which was about three weeks ago. I dont have any of the symptoms that ive read about( i havent loss weight, no diahherra, no nausa)  i just cant stop eating!!!!   but i have been slowing down today.. i dont feel as hungry as i normally do in the mornings.  so hopefully its going away.. but who knows. ?? I am trying to do it mentally just telling my self im not hungry. i hope it works..  so yes girl!! i so know what your going thru...    so good luck to us both.
