For this one she's going to need to contact her doc and ask for suggestions. It's unlikely anyone is going to offer thoughts for diabetics. There are too many variables.

Good luck to your Mom!

I am diabetic and get the runs and other effects from too much artificial sweetener. Check with the Dr for ideas.....I sometimes buy Any Whey from GNC...It's Protein with NO flavor/sweeteners. I sprinkle it on food and get my protein that way. That way Breakfast can even be a hearty blended Soup or something else instead of shakes. But truly, check with the Dr.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
