How can I get my blood sugars under control to be approved for surgery?

I am having tremendous trouble with my blood sugar(A1C) count. It is 9.6 and my surgeon will not approve me unless it is below 7. Can anyone give me a way to tackle this problem? My nutritionist suggests I go on Medifast for diabetes patients. She states it will help me drop the 26 lbs. I gained back and control my blood sugars in order to be approved for surgery. I previously dropped more than the required amount of weight, unfortunately, illness made me gain it back. Can someone PLEASE give me advise on the blood sugar control/reduction???????? I currently take novolog and lantus insulin.
