Reducing My Meds

I had my first appointment with my doctor since this whole process has started. He was excited to here that I was contacted and have already been through the pre-op exam and education.

I told him that with a decrease in calories and increase in exercise I have begun to have several blood sugar crashes and lows. He told me to reduce my Minidiab by 5mgs so that means one less pill on the days intake hehe. I was very glad about this. It was my evening dose I took away, and this morning my blood sugar was 6,4 which is about 117 on the American scale. I am happy with it, because I had a bowl of pea soup before I laid down last night. YAY!

I eat often and in little meals....trying to teach my body to accept the smaller meals early on, and it seems that metabolism likes it to. More pre-op weight loss to come. :001_tt2:
