Are you thinking of the immediate post-op period? While on liquids I think you would have to monitor your glucose and Insulin pretty close. Juices etc can cause spikes and then drops.

I was a Diabetic on glucophage, which I was able to stop 9 months after I had my band place! My last A1C (in March) was 5.1. So I am very pleased with those numbers. The bad part is that my cholesterol is still about 300 so I still need Lipitor.

Hope this helps,

Lisa
