My Endocrinologist has officially determined I am no longer diabetic. They still want me to test and come back in for a couple of 3 month follow ups, and to keep a food journal and readings as I enter the solid food phase - but I am cured. I beat the beast!!!

I wish I could tell my Mom. I will be able to tell my little sister, and the light in my Hubby's eyes and the bear hug made it that much better.

Thank you all too! So very much!

That is AWESOME!!!! Congrats!!!!! :dance:

Wow that is great news! Congrats!

Congrats!!! It's a wonderful feeling! I too was lucky enough to experience the resolution of my Type 2 Diabetes and I'm on Cloud 9 about it.

That is awesome!! Like you, I seem to be experiencing resolution too, and my doc also wants to see how I do for a while on solids with a couple more A1cs, but i'm not on meds anymore. he won't declare me resolved until he sees a 3 month a1c of me being on solids, but with the readings I've had since being on solids, I think it will be good news.

congrats to you!!!

That's great news! I bet you are overjoyed..congrats!

My diabetsis is in remission too, except my A1C is still at 6. They want it below 6. CONGRATS! You are healthy. Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy...........

Wonderful news, congrats!!! :-)

I know how you feel, this was also my best NSV. I am going for my 3rd A1C test at the end of this month, I will be 9 months out. I am less than 10 lbs from my goal weight. My A1C number has been 5.5 or below at my last test and my blood sugar normal since after surgery. My Doctor tells me that once a diabetic, always a diabetic, I do not agree with him. Even though I take no medication and have substained my numbers for over 8 months, he still considers me diabetic but " controlled by diet".

I feel I was a diabetic because of my lifestyle choices. I ate very unhealthy, I WAS obese, I did not exercise so that is what put me in that position. I take full responsibility for that condition. Once I made my decision to have the surgery and change my lifestyle, I am a new person and in no way do I consider myself a diabetic.

I know you are on cloud nine, I remember my first follow up appointment when I had normal blood sugar. The surgery has already proved a huge success for you. Congratulations to you.

Great news! I cannot wait to shake my type 2 diabetes!!! WTG!
