  11. I'm slowly looking into plastic surgery, I was sleeved in July and IF I do need plastic surgery (my arms are huge right now, I HATE them. ) I will wait a year and see how they look. I'm exercising vigorously, strength training, keeping hydrated and moisturized. Im 23, I have a child who was born via c-section and ive been over weight my entire life. So I might need a TT and arm lift...and maybe breast augmentation. Anyhoo, my question is, has anyone had surgery done by a plastic surgeon in Austin or close by cities? If so, how was your experience? My last resort is Mexico.
  12. Hey y'all!!! I had my surgery 7/23/13, so a little over 2 1/2 months and I am down 51 lbs. I feel great! But....I'm stuck in my 2nd stall! My first one lasted 3 longggggg weeks! I tracked my food and I am only getting in 500-600 calories a day. I can't get in anymore because I'm not hungry or if I eat another bite I get nauseated and throw up any advice on what I should do to over come this stall? I drink A LOT of water, about 100 oz a day so I know I don't have to up my fluid intake. Help!
  13. Good luck!!! They were really fast and easy with mine. My patient advocate submitted mine 5/28... it was approved 5/29 but I called the insurance company 5/31 and that's when they informed me when it was approved.

  15. Good luck!!! I pray you have a fast approval! Mine was approved in 24 hrs.
