No more insulin!

[Belladonnis 32]

I am 4 weeks post op and for the last week and a half my sugar levels have been 119 or lower!!! Doc says that I can stop taking insulin, but I still have to check and to see if it gets up to 141 to inject. So far all is good and I am beyond thrilled! To all those Neigh Sayers that told me this surgery wouldn't be good for me.....UP YOURS!!!

WONDERFUL! See, the investment in yourself...it's already paying off! I would absolutely hate to give myself insulin shots every day. I have to give my dog insulin , that's bad enough!

Great job ditching the insulin. I'm 3 1/2 months out. Saw endocrinologist today...my a1c is down less than a point. Doctor is concerned my pancreas isn't doing it's job. Giving it more time to see if something kicks.

I can honestly say that I was disappointed. One of the most important reasons I had this surgery was to ditch insulin - and he's afraid to halt my weight loss efforts with a bigger dose of insulin

I know it's hard, but maybe it just needs more time.. [Hugs]
