Who says the lapband doesn't help diabetics? Just got back from my primary's office. I am officially OFF metformin for diabetes. My glucose levels have been sufficiently good without metformin where she thinks my diabetes will be easily controlled with diet and exercise.

Edie, That is not great news, that is AWSOME news, what more important reason to do WLS than become healthy in th efirst month! And form a disease that EVERY ONE used to call would stick forever. Congradulations, probably this is a happier moment for you than any weight loss moment.
