so sorry about the double posts...I'm still learning how to place my ticker on a page.

Had mine, its great you will have lot of information to take in. My surgery is on Monday! woot woot! I met some great people at the pre op class every one is so encouraging! so excited I'm bursting lol...Oh also weighed in another 5 pounds gone pre op.

I'm feeling better! thanks for all the info. I'm just so close to surgery and I'm over thinking things. Good to know you both are doing well. I need that positive kick in the butt sometimes. Thanks for being there, Jenn

Wow, If you don't mind me asking. What brings on the highs. Is it just body chemistry postoperative? Thanks again, jenn

Thanks so much for the response. Im not on a pump. I do take novalog 7 units with each meal. And lantus 40 units twice a day. I have been dropping to lows and adjusting them with reducing the amount of insulin. I just have to get into the mindset this is just going to come with the wls. Do you have highs as well? Thanks again, Jenn

I'm June 2nd. Having a panicky day. Just trying to take it all in. Glad to see that all of us getting ready for the big surgery day. Interesting to see that the pre op diet is different for people that have posted. I only have a week of pre op diet. Every thing is racing through my mind today. I know that I have made the right choice. I started at 254 I'm at 241 last weigh in. I'm on a c-pap, High blood pressure, Triglycerides are high, and I'm a diabetic type 1. I cant believe I've done this to myself. I am so determined to get healthy. can't wait to be waking up in a recovery room at the hospital. See you all on the other side of surgery soon. we can do this! Jenn

Question for type one diabetic sleeve. How did you do on the pre op diet? I'm having lows even now before I get to the liquid diet. trying to control it with sf apple sauce and healthier choices other than real sugar. ( I don't want dumping syndrome) Am I over thinking all this out of nerves? thanks again, Jenn1

well I went through my closet today. I got rid of all the close that made me feel terrible. Getting new work out clothing mine are getting a bit rough. Tomorrow I go in for all my labs pre surgery class and a consullt with my Dr. I'm off alot of medication that i've been on for a long time. I see colors as brighter the world just looks so different after being druged up for so long. My surgery so far is still on the 2nd of june. I just want to be there in my hospital bed and waking up. I need a new life so badly I just cant get over how close I am. looking forward to moving on. Jenn

I'm on the 2nd also! I think it's great your doing it together. All my best to both of you, jenn

Hey, Great to find people in Idaho. My sugery with Dr. Oakley is set for June 2nd. Everything seems to be going so quickly. I can't wait to be a year out. I found a trainer near my home. Working out has always been hard in this body. I need that kick in the butt sometimes. Hope all is well Jenn

Anyone have a sleeve with type 1 diabetes? Just interested in how you managed your blood sugar and insulin.

Congrats! I don't know about you but I'm looking forward to a year out. My weight has been up and down for a long time. I'm ready to make the changes to keep it off....willing to do what my Dr. says. lol Be well, Jenn

Hey Kim, Great attitude. I'm still a little scared lol@myself. But hopeful and excited. I've wanted to do this for a long time. Its hard to believe it's almost here. You're going to do great, Jenn
