Well, I received a great NSV this week from the results of my blood work, it was my 3 month post op appointment. I have my Diabetes completely under control now with no medication. My A1C test ( 3 month blood sugar average) was 10.2 before surgery, it is now down to 6.3. My Cholesterol was 237 before surgery, it is now 138. My triglycerides were 286 before surgery, they are now 96. The sleeve has been such a great tool to provide the restriction needed to lose weight. I say tool because you still have to eat right and exercise but it is doing its job. I take no medication at all and I feel great. I am well on my way to my goal weight with 65 lbs lost as of today . If I did not lose another pound, this has already been a huge success for me.

Isn't that wonderful! I'm glad to see your lab tests within normal! My first time to my doctor was 1 year after surgery. I had lost 150 lbs and he was so shocked. All he kept on saying was "Look at YOU!" I felt awkward because it was time for my ob/gyn exam, and there he was gooing all over the place. . . lol. . . I didn't much know what to say . . .

What awesome victories!! I am hoping for the same with my cholesterol!

I am so happy for you congratulations on your new healthy lifestyle! Good job!

*does the happy happy, joy joy, dance* Woohoooo that is amazing!

Congrats, what a gift that has been given to us!

That is so great!! CONGRATS!!
