Wow...I didn't know the ranges. That is disheartening, to put it mildly. Because mine was 8.0...I didn't really know what that meant until now. I wasn't really worried about this, but the more I learn, the more I am getting concerned.

Holli - It would be cool if there were a way that they could harvest our leftover skin... someone should work on that.

Stef - yeah... 8.0 is NOT good!! I'm really amazed that yours was so high with all the exercise you do! Wow! But!! I know you, and you are a go getter! You'll do your research about this and you'll get it tackled just like you do everything else. :wink:

Okay, I just got this off the American Diabetes Association website...I feel a little better, but I obviously have some work to do.

Yes, Suzzzie...I am going after the research starting tonight. Like I said, I wasn't worried about it until today. And yesterday my grampa told me that I was relatively young for type 2, also. Statistically, I found out that is correct. I know a lot of folks get it younger than I, I'm just speaking in terms of percentages. I think I may make an appointment with a diabetologist to really get some good starting info.

Stef--when I downloaded my podcast, I clicked on download and it did it to the hard drive. I went into itunes and plugged in my ipod and it synced as usual.

I called The Vitamin Shoppe and GNC again today and no go!

Yeah, that's the only way I see to get it. ITUNES is only showing week nine. You didn't have to import the files into ITUNES? I already have them on my hard drive, so I will try syncing and see if that works...I hope so! Thanx!

Steph,

I ordered 2 boxes and I think I'll need to order a few more. They are AWESOME! ProSource.com was the lowest price I could find. On sale for $25.96 (reg $41 something). The Protein supreme site says they are available at GNC and 7-11, but not in my rinkydink town. The GNC here never even heard of the brand. Sad :)

Karla, have you tried the caramel ones? I have a whole box of those and they just don't "do it" for me like they do a bunch of you guys. If you have, how do they compare and can you taste an aftertaste? I would just hate to order a whole box and have them sitting around.

Oh, gurl...you can send them my way anytime! LOL Maybe you can find a local store that carries the PB ones soon...hopefully...and then you'll know to order them or not?

I just KNOW I'm gonna love the PB ones...:biggrin:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
