I got the OK from the insurance company to have the skin removed off my belly. I cannot wait to have this done (July 15th). I know the surgery and recovery are hard but it will be worth it. I have heard that some insurance companies pay for the removal of the hanging skin on the arms. I have Blue Cross/Blue Shield Illinois PPO. Has anyone had the skin removed from their arms and the insurance company pay for it?

Hi everyone. Next month (March 23rd) will be my one year since my surgery. I have lost a total of 100 lbs. so far. In October, I had a hysterectomy and was not able to exercise (workout) for about 2 1/2 months). I am now back to working out but I have not seen any difference in my weight loss.

Help, I am stuck at this weight and I can't get off this plateau. This is making me crazy. I have started working out and a club and I am eating about 500-700 calories a day. I have even added a 30gram protein drink box each day. I have lost 81 pounds since my surgery (3/23/12). Does anyone have any views on this? Thanks.

I am freaking out because my hair is falling out. I cannot believe how thin my hair is now. What do I do? I have lost 78 pounds since March 8th. I have heard that it is because I have lost so much weight so fast and that it eventually will come back. Will it? I am eating protein and taking my vitamins. Is there anything else I can do?
