Hi Mammysm -Donna: I got my sleeve revision with a new surgeon, finally my sleeve is the correct size. I'm following a high Protein low carb diet. In 3 months have lost 40 lbs. I currently eat 500 - 800 calories, 25 - 50g carbs, 80g+ of protein, 64 oz of Water and exercise. Bariatriceating.com also on Facebook has taught me a lot has been the icing on the cake. Hope this helps. Thanks SoLiel

I hear you. Thanks for sharing!!!

so happy for you...so your no longer a diabetic? When were you diagnosed?

Awesome news!!!! So happy for you!!! How long have you been sleeved?

I would like to know if anyone with Hypothyroidism & Diabetes has had the Gastric Sleeve? How has your weight loss been? Thank you.

What was the outcome after they found out your sleeve was too big? I'm going through something similar. I'm only ten months out but I know I can eat way too much and have been able to for months. The original doc said I may have stretched it out but I was thinking it had to do with my having the band first. However, due to my insurance changing I'm going to a new doctor next week and they are already saying something is wrong since I've only lost 10 pounds. I'll be having some testing done to see what's up. The surgeon left my sleeve too big due to the band. I need a revision. I also found a drawing of what my sleeve surgeon did to my stomach from sleeve to band it was not cut right size.

Yes I have. And I never stopped seeing my nutritionist. The food gets stuck in the area that didn't get cut. So my stomach stretches. I've used the app and log my food for my nutritionist to see/analyze.

Obamacare or any personal health insurance you purchase usually does not cover Out of Network costs. My surgeon only takes United Healthcare Oxford which I can purchase, but the hospital he does surgery is out of network.

I searched those plans they offer coverage for in network doctors only no out of network coverage...which I think my doctor is out of network.

Great info thanks for your help.
