I went to see the nurse and nutritionist at the bariatric clinic today and they are quite pleased with my progress. I am averaging 70g of protein per day 100g of carbs and 70 oz of liquids, and roughly 1100 calories. There are no restrictions on what I can eat. I must be sure to have carbs such as Melba toast, fruit, or crackers with my meals because I am still diabetic. They also increased my vitamin D to 3000 IU daily because it is quite low. All in all I am pleased.

    That's great news! You are doing very good Theresa!
    I wonder why we have that vitamin D deficiency after a sleeve, even with supplements....and sun exposure (for me)!

    Don't know. For me, it's living in Canada because I was taking D for the last 5 years. The B12 is probably the Metformin.

    I have type 2. Surgery dropped my A1C from high 8s to low 7s. I've gone from 4 metformin, 1 januvia, 2 glyburide and 42 units of insulin to 2 metformin. The issue is my fasting glucose. It's finally in the 6s (don't know how to convert to U.S. measures). The key is most but not all.
