Here are the guidelines. An A1C 6.5 or higher is diagnostic for diabetes. An A1C of 5.7-6.4 is prediabetes. Hope this helps! Either way RNY us your best option for improvement :)

Thanks! And congrats to jesshudgins and everyone else on this path! With work it'll be a new year for all of us!

So happy to see so many new people in the group! Yay for all the new surgery dates and approvals! I submit mine 11/25 and hopefully no issues with a 12/18 surgery date! Its a week before Christmas and with a husband on midnight shift and a 1 year old..this wont be easy. But it will be worth it. Really struggling with this but I have to hope Im making the right choice. :/

RCDLambert,

You are doing the right thing. It is nyhe anticipation that is hard and makes you think more and more about the unknown. That is what makes us crazy. Just know that you will suceed and not inky will your child and husband be there for you ..you will be there for them!!

Got the green light to meet with the surgeon! They will call me tomorrow to make that appointment and once I meet with him I will have date! Shooting for the end of November early Dec! Soooooo close!

I got the call today! Surgery date November 19th. Wow! This is really going to happen!

Mskami that's right around the corner wow! How long have you been waiting for a date ?

I just my insurance approval. I finished all of my requirements on October 8th. Submitted to insurance on the 24th approved on the 29th and a date today. So I guess I waited 21 days. I can't believe it happened so fast. I started the process on July so this is crazy fast.

I got the call today! Surgery date November 19th. Wow! This is really going to happen!

Congrats Mskami77 on your surgery date 11-19-13! Sending prayers your way!

So excited! Will do. They are pushing to get me in before my deductible re-ups on Dec 1. I will try to post in real time what it feels like. I know that's the biggest unknown for me. Pain, mindset, pain, hunger, pain lol ect The feat of the unknown is the worst!
