I know that bypass helps diabetes by the physical changes in the intestines after the the surgery, not just the difference in the diet that you go by afterward.  I'm not very familiar with the Sleeeve....does it have the same effect on diabetes as the bypass or does it just help control it like a healthy diet/lifestyle might do?

while ALL weightloss surgeries that acheive adequate weight loss will HELP with diabetes, studies have shown that the duodenal switch has the best success rate at resolving diabetes. in fact, in europe they are doing just the switch part in normal weight patients to resolve diabetes. for more info on the duodenal switch visit DSFacts.com.
