Hope you're joy comes back soon! Immediately after surgery many people are taken off diabetic medication. The weight will come off if you follow your Surgeon and Nut's guidelines. Exercise and eating healthier foods will also increase muscle and more muscle burns fat. Be hopeful. Since my surgery on 6/13 I've lost 13 lbs w/o doing a thing except following my post op diet instructions.

Thanks for the encouragement. Cause im scared that i will mess up. I want this more than anything.

It is ok, I heard insulin can do that to a persons weight, don't feel discouraged! It is a great journey and if you stick to it then you will do GREAT!!! Good luck with everything, take care, and don't forget to smile :)

p.s. congrats on getting surgery soon :)
