  5. Now 12 days out doing really well. beginning weight 325 now 290 that includes pre op diet went back to work at 1 week post op. have to take Pepcid daily. Plus my vits. I'd do it again a lot sooner knowing what I know now

    A1C

    your a1c need to be < 8 for surgery , it takes about 3 months to change your a1c once you start your diet , so if your sugar is 200 and you need it to be 150 it will take 3 mo to get your a1c to equal 150 blood sugar
