Bad Test Results :-(

My doctor just called and confirmed I am officially diabetic! 

I have PCOS and have always had elevated glusose, but was hoping it didn't turn into full diabeties.

I just want to go home, put my head under a pillow and cry, but I can't leave work because I have to get everything done before Thanksgiving.  I have stacks of files needing to be processed all over my desk. 

This just confirms I need to get the surgery because I don't see any other way of getting this weight off. I just love food too much to be a sucessful dieter.  I am so scared and angry at myself for letting my weight and health get this out of control.

I can relate to your story.  I received the same bad news from my doctor a while back.  It was definitely one of the worse days of my life.  Trust me, I cried, yelled, got angry with myself for not paying attention to the doctor when she said it would happen if I did not change my ways,  rebelled by acting as if I did not have it, and then accepted that it was something that I would have to manage before it managed me.  The good thing is that it was discovered early, so you can take the proper steps to control it before it gets worse.  It is also one of the reasons why I have decided to go through with the surgery.  We are all here to support you :-)

Look on the bright side.  Everything you learn about being Diebetic can be used toward your post op days!!  Try Splenda.. It is a marvelous substute.  Also having Diebeties as a mortality can be used to your advantage in getting approval.  With RNY you will be off meds in NO time flat.  I left the hospital on NO diebeties meds!!  Yippeeeee!!  YOU"LL BE FINE!! Im rooting for your approval!!!

I HATE Splenda and I HATE milk. I would rather do without than have fake sugar.

Have you tried Stevia? It is very different, but it is a natural plant product.
I buy it at a health food store. I like it in my "sweet" tea. It does not have any kind of chemical taste.

Another product to try:  Raw Sugar...it doesn't make me dump at all. 

Since WLS, I've become lactose intolerant and have tried just about everything on the market.  I love the Silk Soy Plain, closest thing in taste and consistency to milk I've found.
Life is not about making it through the storm....but learning how to dance in the rain.
