Google "cholesterol rise during rapid weight loss" (or similar phrasing). It's possible that it's just transient because your body is breaking down your own body fat.
The headline is slightly off center from the story's primary message. The article itself raises excellent points about wasting time and money on pre-surgery weight-loss plans for insurance-covered...
Hi, Dgunstone. Three years ago I joined this forum to explore the sleeve. If it were not so costly, I might have taken that route. I still read posts here from time to time to continue my...
This is one of the keto breads I make, and it's very nice. I prefer to use one less tablespoon of coconut oil only because it is a pretty oily bread--just an aesthetic thing. I usually spread butter...
I couldn't afford the sleeve and then discovered the low-carb/high-fat way of eating. It's virtually stopped my reflux, and I've lost weight without battling my appetite. Wishing that you find a path...
I don't like to tell people what to do, but I'll tell you what I've chosen and why.
About two years ago I joined this helpful forum and learned about every aspect of getting sleeved. I found the...
Non-sleeve me again here. (Can you tell it's the dead of winter and I'm just knocking around the 'net?)

Hey there, Ann.

Hi, hi, hi. I was in this forum about two years ago, have since discovered keto/lchf with great success, rather than pursue the sleeve option, but sometimes revisit here for overall learning.

Hi, Ann. [Waves, waves, waves.]
Here's an update on my diet/blood sugar/hypoglycemia investigation (I post as QuarryJoy in this thread, too):

True, blood pressure and diabetes don't get worse, but they don't always get better or stay better.
Just to keep the latest data in circulation. I'm piping up to share news from the Journal of the...
I hate to see people beat themselves up. You may find some perspective in knowing it's not just you:
Long-term followup of bariatric surgery finds regain of weight, decrease in diabetes remission...
A heartfelt thank-you to Nurse Laurie. It's posts like yours that steered me off from possibly following in your footsteps. As you know, there's almost nothing medicine can do for hypoglycemia except...
Hiya, Ann. (Whoo-hoo, you're in the 150s!)
Nope, I know nothing more than what's said.
If anyone here is comparing the different sorts of surgeries, this might be a selling point for the sleeve as...
Hi, kids. Saw this news and wanted to be sure all of you stay on top of your colon cancer screenings. The process is really easy, and the prep is less bothersome than it was just a few years ago. It...
Thanks, everybody.
Given the financial blow and possible health negatives, I think I'll not opt for a sleeve.
Since I have virtually perfect health and literally can do everything I want, the...

I am not liking where my research is taking me.
There appears to be mounting evidence that reactive hypoglycemia occurs in a minority of patients after sleeving. There are posts within this forum...
It's easy to listen. Venting is part of the healing process. Let it out.
Don't hate me because I'm beautiful ... er, I mean healthy.
Since menopause I've been on a statin, but trim folks my age are, too.
Be honest, readers. You thought for a second, "I'd be willing to develop a fungal infection for insurance-covered surgery..."

It's a tough topic to portray. The producers could edit to be less sensationalist, but some sideshow aspect may be inextractable from our culture. In the end, some enlightenment will be gained by...
Oh, not geometry. That would make me blue, too. (Don't let member Numbers see this thread. He'll think we're a couple of wimps.)
I was usually on the Dean's list, but then that dang required math...
