[QUOTE="juliekem, post: 1395515, member: 47477"] Last Saturday I had a gastric band fitted privately because I was unable (after years of trying) to lose weight or to get my blood glucose readings down to below about 7. Low carbing simply didn't work for me - I was unable to fast for any length of time due to the horrendous migraines that occurred whenever I tried to go for one day on fluids alone. Has anyone else gone down this route - I feel very alone at the moment and also a failure as I simply could not lose weight by the diet doctor,s low carb high fat approach - my hunger always got the better of me. I have type 2 diabetes and had a BMI of 35 with high blood pressure and high triglycerides. I really need to talk to others who have gone down this route - is there anyone else out there? [/QUOTE]
