I had my surgery on Dec. 16th of 2010.   Pre-op surgery my cholesterol was 220 and blood sugar was in diabetic range.  7.2      I have lost 22 lbs since surgery ( a little on the slow side) but my blood work last week was......... cholesterol 145 and blood sugar 6.4  !!!!  All this and I never had to take any meds for either in the past or post op.  woohoo.   I am so glad because I was so close to being put on meds. 

and BTW I had to toss in . thanks for the hints on Papaya Enzyme.  that stuff is like liquid drano for the esophagus when your stuck.. I love it.

That is such wonderful news.  That is why we do the band---to get healthy and loose weight.  I had surgery on the 17th--one day after you.  I am blessed with a bit faster weight "release"  I dont say the other word because I never want to "find" it again.  Keep doing it one day at a time!!!!
