Has any Type II diabetics lost wt in the pre-op phase and come off all diabetes meds?

My Blue Cross requires me to lose 10% of my body weight prior to approval. My weight loss has caused changes in my blood sugar levels and my doc has d/c the Januvia and decreased metformin to 500 mg once daily. They are talking about the prospects of d/c all meds. I want to know if anyone has experienced this successfully. I am concerned that these improvements will not be long term but I won't discover it until after I have decided not to have RNY. What do you think/know about this?
