About this blog
Hey Everyone. I never thought I would need a gastric sleeve. I had a great career but traveled 20+ days a month. At age 58 I was diagnosed with full blown diabetes. My blood sugar was 800 when I was hospitalized.....too much stress, too much restaurant food, too little sleep, moving from time zone to time zone....you get the picture. Recent EKGs show heart rhythm issues.....I am 5’5”, 230 lbs. Age 66. I am up to 600 units of insulin a day. The Drs think the diabetes is starting to affect my heart. The Endro Doc says time for a Gastric sleeve since weight loss drugs are a no-no. I go in for my first class on Thursday. I still walk everyday but Doc says that will not do it and increased Cardio not a good idea. So my journey begins.
