@zacksfever: A lot of the people I see on metformin and two BP tablets had a long stretch where everything was just a little high. When the sugar and the pressure start drifting up in the same person, they usually share a root, and a lot of the time it's fat sitting around the belly and in the liver. That's why number three counts twice. Cut the sugary drinks and the ultra processed stuff and the belly fat starts coming down with it
