I've been eating a low-GI diet for 6 months now, and taking Glucophage 500 XR for the last four. I walk at least 10,000 steps a day just about every day (I've missed 9 days in the last six months, first due to tendonitis in my achilles' tendon, then a really nasty bout of food poisoning).
So far, I've dropped about 30 pounds, and my fasting glucose has come from ~125 mg/dl to ~105 mg/dl.
YMMV, but mine's been pretty good! (60,000 steps per pound? 24 miles per pound?)
