Diabetes & My Sleeve!



Recommended Posts

I am happy to report that I am free of diabetes!!!!!!!! Hallelujuah. Thank you Jesus!!!! I just came back from my endocrinologists office and I do not have to take anymore insulin. I am going to continue to check my sugars once/twice a day just as a safety precaution but otherwise I am done. I am so happy!!!

For all of the diabetics out there there IS a light at the end of the tunnel!

POOF IT'S GONE!!!!!!!

FYI: I was sleeved July 17th... It's August 1st. Now how do you like them apples!!!? *Happy Dance*!!!

My PCP won't say that I am not diabetic. He says my diabetes is "controlled" despite the fact that my a1c and blood sugar have been normal for 6 months. I'd say he's full of @#$&.

I too am praying for the sams GREAT results/news. I was sleeved 7/19 and do not go see my md until late Sept or early Oct for him to run my a1c. Fingers are crossed that the weight will melt off between now and then so he tells me the same good news.

Congrats and keep it up!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
