I got a call from the scheduling nurse today and she said that there are 7 people ahead of me on the list and 3 of them have already had their surgery!!!!!   I am so excited!!!  I am so ready to start a new life!!!  I am going for the Gastric Bypass.  I am a severe type 2 diabetic and I am so tired of taking shots everyday!!!  I am hoping that this will help me achieve the goals I want to achieve and possibly help me live without taking insulin!!

I stopped insuline two week after my surgery.

Prior to that I used to take it 3 times a day and despite that my sugars ran in the 400's. So yup .. the days of insulin dependence are severely outnumbered !!

WOW!!!!!  I am amazed!!!  Sorry it has taken me so long to reply I am trying to figure all this out lol!!!  I have been on insulin for almost 15 years on and off... I am so tired of needles and bruises.  Mine also ran in the 300's and 400's... I had never had an A1C under 12 until last month it came down to 7.9 and that is because I am working my tail off so that I can have the surgery!!!  They called yesterday and I am a go!!!  I should have a date by the end of this month.  She said my surgery will definately be in July!!!  I am soooo Excited!!!  Just still have a few fears...
