Topic: 3 years ago today
Wow, 3 years ago today I had my life changing RNY.  All and all I am very happy with my results.  I am still up about 15 pounds from my lowest weight about 2 years ago.  I know this is normal but still hate the fact I didn't stay around 152-155.  My personal goal weight was 145.  I really really wanted a "normal" BMI.  Its been exactly 8 months ago today I had my plastic surgery.  I am very happy with my results.  I have a few issues with my scars being wide and somewhat ugly.  If I had to do over I probably would not have done my thighs.  I don't think the scars were worth the results I got.  My tummy tuck scars are almost invisible, they have never seen the sunshine.  I love my arms and boobs.  I can wear short sleeve shirts and I don't even care about the scars showing at this point.  Its so nice to be able to purchase shirts that fit around my upper arms.  I was forever ripping out elastic on shirts and rehemming them to not be so tight.  I just had my blood work done last week and every thing was perfect.  My numbers were not quite as good as they had been but still in the good range.  I have not been as compliant with my vitamins since my plastics and going back to work.  I am back on my normal amounts now and back to working out more regular.  I feel so much better.  I have started the new Zumba videos. They are fun and very hard they work everything.  We are going on vacation on March 1st to the islands on a scuba dive trip.  Very excited and need to get into bathing suit mode fast.  Happy 3 years to me!!  Its been a fantastic journey...

 Hi Carla unfortunately  I did not have any luck with Molina or Sunshine State from what i have researched no one takes HMO with medicaid its either straight medicaid medipass or share of cost my insurance was recently changed to share of cost and I did find a doctor that takes it but they say there is a waiting list so hopefully its not too long.. Here is the info just in case it is Dr. De la Cruz 305-856-4385
