anaxila 501 Posted January 19, 2015 @@Susan33, I had bypass on 1/6. Before bypass, I was on medication for type II though not insulin. I left the hospital completely off all meds to control diabetes. I have been monitoring my glucose level 4x/day to see what happens, and so far the highest I've registered is 124. All others have been in the 90-110 range. So... right away, basically.

Susan33 18 Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks Cat,Mb, and Anaxila. I have type2, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I know the gb isn't a magic cure and that I need to change my eating and activity habits forever. I don't want to say tmi but I need help. I have tbi(traumatic brain injury) with short and long term memory loss from getting hit by car. So I don't understand things right away. My thing is I just need help on what I should eat and workout info. I have gym in apartments and I do the,leg weightlifts and arm weights(3 diff ways), bike for bout 20 min and elliptic for bout 5. Should I be doing more? Any info anyone has I'd appreciate. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
