Surgeon Testimonial

Julie Leverton, M.D.
I had my consultation with Dr. Leverton in June. It was a long drive from where we live, but well worth it. Their office A/C was broken that day but we sweated it out! Shawntae, her assistant, was a riot! She made my husband and I feel right at home. Dr. Leverton was awesome. She was surprised that I knew the word 'co-morbidities'. LOL! She is so cute! She was surprised that we are coming so far to have the surgery done in Wylie, but I know I have chosen the best surgeon for the job! I can't wait for my turn to finally be on 'the other side' and be losing this weight forever! There are 3 reasons why I feel that Dr. Leverton and the BTC are the best and they are: 1) She is a woman and can identify with women in general. 2) She is very meticulous in her surgery scars and they are barely visible. 3) Having it done at the BTC is better than a hospital because you don't have to deal with sick patients who have diseases and infections, and the whole atmosphere is healthier! 4) Having it done at the BTC is better because EVERYTHING is catered to the obese patient! EVERYONE should have their surgery here! LOL!

    I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all. (unknown author)FROM MY HEART TO YOU ~*~Hugs~*~

    Robin, I agree totally with your post. People going thru plastic surgery are just as important as people having wls. Its the icing on the cake. I want the same support when I have that as I did with my RNY. Just wanted you to know that I am on your side 100%. Hugs!

Hey everyone! It's been FIVE LONG YEARS! YIPPEEE! I can't believe it's been that long though! Wow! The time flies when the weight comes off because you're so busy all the time! As far as weight loss, it's still the same. I stay between 165 and 170 the majority of the time. When I REALLY am bad for a while, I can get up to 177 but I get my butt back in gear and follow the pouch rules and water and protein and the pouch ALWAYS works! It will work for you no matter if you're five years out or fifty years out! Don't ever forget that! My measurements are interesting though. My bust and hips are the same as they were at 150 but everything else is what they should be at 165-170. Weird! I don't get to exercise as much because I'm having hip and joint problems, so I really have to be good most of the time to prevent gaining a lot of weight back. Exercise is the key though and we all know it! *wink* Even though I didn't get to 140 like I would have liked to, 165-170 isn't bad and everyone says I'm a normal weight for a 'woman my age'. Now that STINKS! LOL! I hate that phrase! It makes me sound like I'm really ancient or something!  I don't have a support group where I live and I really need friends so write me and let's help one another! Hugs and prayers to all of you!
