Will My Diabetes Be Reversed?
Liberated Sleeve replied to Serendipity's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
was on 3 meds for my diabetes. Insulin, Victoza and Metformin x2 a day. I took no meds after I left the hospital for my diabetes. Sugars running around 110 fasting. Less than 60 days out of surgery my diabetic A1C was down to 5.7%. It was 6.7% before surgery with the 3 meds. Today 5 1/2 months out still at 5.7% A bonus: my high blood pressure is back into the normal ranges. I was on 2 meds before surgery. No meds since surgery for that one either. Good luck and God bless you! -

8 Months And Completely Need To Change My Habits!
Liberated Sleeve replied to frumpy69's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Try logging your food into My Fitness Pal and watching your carbs - high carbs do make you crave more carbs!! Keep your Protein high and it will help with the food cravings. It doesn't sound like you stretched your stomach if one piece of bread fills you up, I mean I used to could it 5 pieces of bread and a big ole plate of speghatti! LOL You don't have to be a fitness fanatic just move - go walking outside -
Can I Use Fmla/disability
Liberated Sleeve replied to lynn2win's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I filed FMLA and used my Short Term Disability coverage and stayed off the full 6 weeks. I am 5 1/2 months out and have not missed one sick day since returning to work. Loving it!! Yes, use it and if you have Short Term Disability coverage with your employer use it too as that is one of the benefits your company offers you! -
Stupid Question Alert! Why Remove 80% Of Stomach, Why Not 65%
Liberated Sleeve replied to DanaInNewOrleans's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I believe my surgeon told me they remove the portion that is stretchy - and if they left part of that well then you could stretch your stomach back out by over eating again>??? -

How Do You Keep Low Carbs?!
Liberated Sleeve replied to KikiCC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I eat the Stoneyfield Plain Greek Yogurt and add splenda and vanilla extract for flavor. You can subtract the fiber and the sugar alcohols from the carb count. I manage to keep mine between 20-40 a day most days. I eat alot of spicy pork rinds for the crunch factor! They are my chips and they are awesome with just about everything (except yogurt - lol) I manage to get about 80-100 grams of Protein a day. I do add some unflavored Protein Powder to my coffee and sometimes to my Propel Zero Water to bump up my intake. If you aren't on My Fitness Pal think about joining it and getting friends because you can view their food diaries each day and get ideas of the different kinds of foods they eat that are low in carb and get an idea of how others are doing it. -

Starting New Life...i Hope
Liberated Sleeve replied to Blackstuff77's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Same here on the diabetes and blood pressure. Haven't had any meds since day before surgery and last A1C was 5.7 - whoo hoo!! You got this girl and congrats on taking control of your life! "My boyfriend......." make that "MY EX-boyfriend" - what an ass he doesn't deserve to be a part of your life or that child's with an attitude like that! (I can say that because I had one that said pretty close to the same kinda thing years ago when I was a size 5 - wanted me to lose more weight. So I gained more to hide myself instead of dumping his sorry ass!! -
