Default Diet Controlled Diabetic

Had my follow up with my PCP. My lab work came back great. For the first time in 23 years, I am classified as a diet controlled diabetic. I went from 100 units a day of insulin to none during the first 2 months after WLS. This is a great accomplishment for me.

No more sleep apnea either... YEAH.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Congratulations!!! That's great to hear, especially the diabetes, it is such a debliating disease when it can't be controlled.
Keep up the good work!!!

Thanks guys. It has been nice going from 2 shots a day and 3 finger pricks a day to check my level. I still have to check my level once a day, but I can live with that.

That is really good news. It is a really big releif that you do not have to give yourself shots anymore. Keep up the great work. You are doing awesome.
