I am so excited, I just got off the phone with my primary care physician. November 2009 I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, with an A1C of 7.4 ~ which gave me a slap of reality and triggered my weight loss journey. I was banded 10/21 and have lost a total of 62 lbs since 11/09 (30 lbs. post-op)... my latest A1C is 5.6!! He said I no longer have to take medication for Diabetes. :bananajump: This is in edition to my two other nsv's of having to buy all new winter clothes because nothing from last year fits and being able to cross my legs comfortably.

This really reassures me that I made the right decision getting my band.

Looks like you need to update your ticker! Great job on the weight loss and definitely the NSV!!

What does NSV mean???

NSV means Non-scale Victory

Awesome Job, Way to go! Being diabetic myself this is something I'm really looking forward to. This gives me one more reason to get my band. Congratulations, again!
