  1. Can anyone tell me specifics about the after diet? I understand it's liquid for awhile- how do you graduate up? Is the hardest part craving foods you can't eat or are you simply hungry a lot? Does anyone use protien drinks? I just clicked a link for one called
  2. Thanks for the link! I am going to show my ignorance here. What is RNY? I am having the sleeve plication. Is that the same thing?
  3. I agree that even a small amount of weight loss is beneficial, diabetic or not. The added benefit of the procedure is it seems to reduce or get rid of entirely the hormone that causes diabetes...if I understand correctly. Game on- going to Mexico!
  4. Thank You for the information! I have Kaiser Insurance and they told me my plan doesn't cover it and even if it did I would have to have a BMI of 40 regardless.
  5. Has anyone around here had the plication sleeve and had diabetes? I am considering having it done at Angels Hospital in Mexico. My insurance won't cover it here in the states because I need a BMI of 40 and I am 36- which is bad enough for me. More then the weight loss, if I could help or reverse my diabetes I would be estatic!
