[QUOTE="Deeplydippy58, post: 1834452, member: 485227"] hi all, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetic in 2002 and in 2006 I was advised by my GP who was also a ‘diabetic expert’ to have the mid lap band fitted. Due to the fact I only had 15 teeth I also spent the first 2 yrs under Guys in London trying to improve and fit light dentures due to to the fact that you have to chew food to purée and I have a high gag reflex, the food you can manage without teeth is high fat and dairy . I still managed to lose 8 stone and reversed my type2 to glucose intolerance so should be happy but oh no the bad unbalanced diet ruined my pancreas and I had to have the band and my gall bladder removed Now not only is the diabetes back but my pancreas now does not produce insulin so on two different tablets and insulin injections twice a day cannot drink coffee or alcohol and have basically become a vegetarian as cannot tolerate red meat If you can manage with will power please do I’m 59 and feel like I’m 80 [/QUOTE]
