Thank you . ! Im sure this will help me ALOT .

Cut out carbs.. No bread rice potatoes, no sugar ... U will c change and do at least half hour of cardio per day.

It is hard when you don't have support from people close to you, but that is why I am so glad there is this site. When are you planning on seeing Duran Trendymom? Good luck with the weight loss :)

I'm planing to go in July 16 and surgery is 17th ,already confirmed with Duran..and yes this site been a great help

Lookingfit thanks sweety :)

Good luck on everything.Please keep us informed about everything with dr Duran even the pain right after surgery because I am very interested in going next year.I hope I don't chicken out lol.

I think it comes down to who you feel comfortable with to trust enough with such a procedure, and to give you the results you are looking for. Has either doctor recommended you to lose weight? I am not trying to offend you, I just personally have been asked to lose weight when I contacted both doctors. I think for anyone a good pre-op body will yield much more dramatic results. I don't think a girl has to be perfect going in or anything, but sometimes I feel some girls are unrealistic because they have been asked to lose 30-40 pounds and they didn't and are expecting to come out like a size 2 video vixen. I mean lipo can only go so far, and while it will change your shape since it is a contouring method it won't make you lose a ton of weight. Like if I was going to get surgery tomorrow I don't think my results would be as nice as if I would have waited and worked out more and gotten more toned. I mean it would definitely be 50x better than my current shape, but I know I would be happier if I worked for a better pre-op body in the meantime. I am a short girl, 5'2 as well, (where my hobbits at?) and I carry a lot of my weight in my mid section so I would like to get stronger and a little more fit before going into surgery cause I look a hot mess lol. I think both surgeons do incredible lipo work, again, I think it is who you feel confident in more. I don't want to be on that crazy train where I am pitting my doctor against other docs and saying how superior she is blah blah blah, because while she might be perfect for me, she might not be for someone else, the same way for example, Dr.Jimmerson is not for me.

Yes i do have to loose. Im 5'3 and Im bigger then i was pregnant. i currently way 165. Im working on it. I've changed my eating habits drastically. plus Im eating foods rich in iron mixed with the vitamin c so my body can absorb the iron. yeah i don't want to go in like this but i don't want to be skinny again i want to a curve thick not a sloppy thick. but yes i was told to loose weight. And i agree with you about the pre op body. trust me i don't want to pay for a mess lol so i totally agree with you....... its a very hard decision for me. Im leaving the country traveling alone and i just want to make the right choice. Dr j curves is ridiculous with the prices he quotes good work just to much....

haha! When I heard 16k for a BBL I was like um...so that comes with a shirtless Tom Hardy to wife me right? lol. Cause if it did I would be all over that sh*t. I think once you find a surgery partner it will seem less daunting because you both can support one another and will be going through the same healing process. If you haven't already, you should post your date in the surgery date forum to be placed on the calendar, and also look in the "looking for travel buddies" thread and post there. I think you will definitely find someone :) I absolutely agree with you. You do want to feel like you have made the right choice and it is a lot to deal with since you are going far away, in a completely different country, and are trusting someone with your body. I am right there in that boat with you hon lol. Surgery in general, is a big decision and we all just want to be happy with our results and have no complications. I think it is great how you are incorporating iron and vit c into your eating habits and have changed your diet. Good for you. Your day will be here soon! :)

I decided to go with Dra Augustina Duran. Now Im just waiting for a response to my email

I had my surgery in Feb 2013 with Dr. Yily. I am thrilled with my results and her service. The price was awesome, recovery minimal and results beyond expectations. I had Lipo with BBL, lipo of inner thighs and breast lift. Im 37, 5'2 and now weigh 135lbs. Dr. Yily is the way to go!! There are lots of people on here who get paid to sway you toward a Dr. This is not my case, I have real results! Do your research ladies!

Go with Dr. Yily!! If you do not get a timely response via email, call the office and let them know you want to come soon. I do know her schedule has been booked. My sister had to wait til today and she scheduled her surgery after I had mine in Feb. You wont be disappointed with Yily. She and her staff are very attentive at the clinic. I cant say the same for the other Drs there. I didnt see their staff assisting the patients after their surgery. Good luck :)

I just gog a response for Dr Yily she quoted my 3200 for EVERYTHING Iwant done. Liposculpting abdomen, flanks, thighs, back , arms (idk if i want that), and bbl....... I've emailed another Dr but i havent got a response and that was almost two weeks ago......

Thats a good price. These Drs are really busy. You know its income tax refund time. They get about 300-500 emails daily. They have to run their practice during the day and then respond to emails at night. If you want a small waist and round REALISTIC looking bottom, go with Yily. She's go the magic touch! Good luck and post pics after your surgery.

@geisha74 Duran's email was temporarily down a little while ago. I would resend your email.

What's dr yily email? I've been trying to contact her too. How do I get a passport

You can apply for a passport at the post office. Make sure u check online for their processing days and hours www. Usps .com

DraYilyPlastica@gmail.com

Im waiting for a response also. i joined her group on fb and was told she was having system issues but she started responsing to emails on the 9th or 10th. She also got a new assistant so that may have something to do with it also...... i want to go in July so i wish she would hurry and answer my email so i can start to prepare for the sx. get s quote

I dont have her contact info, sorry. Im at the clinic today and there are so many women having surgery!! I did see a patient of hers sitting in the waiting area AFTER she had surgery. She was from London and didnt speak English. I and another person in the waiting area had to help her get up so she could use the bathroom. She was leaking fluid on her clothing, NOT blood, fluid. And she was crying. Just and FYI for you............

Have you tried calling the office?

I tried to call from my phone I think I need to get a calling card to dr.. idk how all this works but I'm learning.. n every time I try to join her group It rejects it like ill join today n than tomorrow ill have to join again.. but ill try to email her again n see if I get a response.. thanks so much guy

Its a closed group you have to wait for a administrator to accept your invite

Okay thank u geisha..

hey im curious to know how did you carry your cash on you ? are you using WiFi to post ?? Im scheduled for May 27 and im just stuck thinking of me carrying my money and how will i communicate with my family.

If you are going with Yily you can deposit the $ in her Chase account. Otherwise carry the cash on your body. In your bra, pockets, etc.

you can pick up free wifi at CIPLA.
