I started my 6 months today and my dietician said that I only have pre diabetes. I saw a hematologist a couple years ago and he said I have diabetes..my insurance requires you to have diabetes to be approved..my dietician said that some doctors consider pre diabetes diabetes..now I had to get pre approved and send in my app to the bariatric center at my seminar before I could see my surgeon and get started..it says on the paper to not bother applying if you are under 18, below 35 BMI and don't have diabetes, over age 71 and or a BMI of over 71 and yet I was accepted and my insurance approved all of my pre op appointments..so I'm confused but my dietician made me nervous...I called and left a message with my doctors nurse to find out how she is wording my diabetes situation..I'm hoping to hear soon but my doctor is always booked and busy...also super nervous about my psyc test..I should hear back from the team in a few weeks..ugh this **** stresses me out..I want this more than anything!

Hopefully you will hear from them soon so you can put to rest some of your worries and concerns! Hoops to jump through, I had a lot to jump through myself...but in the end it was all worth it. Keep your head up and keep moving forward!!! Good luck with everything! :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
