    Hi KC. I was type II diabetic. I was only on medication, no insulin. I left the hospital no longer needing medication. My husband was also diabetic, on insulin and a few different meds. He had the bypass. He was able to also leave the hospital no longer needing insulin or meds.

  16. September 2015

    I had my surgery on September 23rd 2015. I lost 12 pounds before surgery and only 28 pounds between surgery and my one year surgerversary. So only 50 pounds total. I still have 50 pounds to go. My husband had his rny on October 17th. He has lost 50 pounds since his 2 week pre OP diet. I am finally getting back on the bandwagon. I'm getting at least 60 grams of protein, keeping carbs under 100 grams, drinking 64 ounces water and keeping calories between 1000 and 1200 calories. Just started a few weeks ago but already seeing 1-2.5 pounds lost per week. Any other sleevers from September 2015?

  23. At what point did you begin using straws again?!

    MelissaKay replied to cal2okl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    My doctor said no straws. Since stopping using them I'm used to it. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

  24. Does this look ok to you? Sample meal plan 3 months.

    MelissaKay replied to BobbyD's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    How about your total carbs? I know Protein bars can have a lot of carbs. Otherwise your plans sound. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
