Dr. Lima 1st Surgery- Dominican Republic

Hi, everyone. Although I have replied to several people's reviews, I've yet to post my own. I guess now is as good a time as any. I'm a mom of several children (more than 6) and you probably know that my bod is jacked! Thought about doing this several years ago, but it was out of my reach, financially, so I just dealt with how I was. I now have he ability to fund what I need to regain my self esteem and confidence back. So, I started researching on RealSelf, and fell in love with Duran's handiwork! I am trying to schedule for early December, so I can recuperate while my kids are home from school.(winter break) and that way, I will be ready for the summer months, with the killer bod!!!! Her work almost seems surreal, it's so magical. She is truly blessed at her craft!! Anyway, I've been trying to connect with her for the past week and it seems almost impossible.
I called her cell number. She answered on the first try, however, she told me to call her office number. Called them a million times, kept getting disconnected, then they told me to call back in 10 minutes. Called back NO ANSWER. Then called again, this time someone tried to get me to talk to another Dr. (Dr. Cabral) I believe she said. I told them no, I definitely wanted duran, then she told me to hang up I called the wrong number! So I called the cell phone again, she answered again, I told her what I wanted, she told me to call her back in 10 minutes. Then, I called the office number again, and the girl told me, that I would have to wait until Duran got back to me. I told her I sent several emails with pics and wanted to schedule for early December and needed to plan, so she told me to call her back at 2pm.today and she would try to help me. Don't know what's gonna happen then, but I guess I have no other choice, huh? Well, will keep you updated. I can see why some people would say the heck with it and go with their second choice because it's frustrating not being able to get through, but after seeing DURAN'S work, No Way! Im hanging in there.Don't care how long it takes. They may wanna have me arrested for STALKING!! lol! Well, once I get a reply and a date, I will add my BEFORE photos, since I will know that there will be an AFTER photo. But right now, I'm not sure, and don't want those horrible pictures to be the only lasting image that you all have of me. LOL!!! I love this sight. Everyone is so positive and inspiring and supportive. Thanks so much!

So as everyone knows by now, I am a duran stalker!!!!! OMG, it was bad, really really bad. Anyway, I hooked up with someone on real self who already had a surgery date, and wanted a buddy. So we corresponded with each other and then we spoke on the phone. We vibed, and so we decided that she would call duran and see if she could get me in on the same date. She explained to duran that she didn't want to travel alone and expense wise, having a buddy would help us both out, and VOILA! I'm in!!!! She just needs to email me over my quote and instructions! ladies, I am going to become a duran doll. Although, I said I would post before pics once I got a date, I think I am going to wait until surgery is done. It's bad really really bad, and I would really hate to just be hanging out on real self looking like that until Dec. So from the moment after surgery, I will post before and after!!! Good luck to all of you that are waiting to become Duran Dolls. Just like someone posted earlier...you will literally have to stalk her!! the," this is harassment, go to jail type stalking"!!!! LOL! Trust me, I know, cuz I did it myself!!!

Hi everybody,
Ok, well Im still waiting for my quote, even though I have a surgery date already. In the meantime, I am starting a new eating regimen to lose about 20 -30 pounds before my surgery date. Im at 217 right now, so I guess 190 will be good. I havent weighed under 200 in the past 12 or 13 years. thats kinda where my weight plateaus and just stays there. And actually 200 doesnt look bad on me cuz i am pretty tall. (5'8") Its mostly legs. Well at least it used to be before my midsection started expanding and made me look like a short troll! LOL!!! When I expanded width wise, it made me shrink length wise. So, anywho...when I lose the weight, I will hopefully get the appearance of length back in my legs so when I get the surgery everything will fall into place and I'll have that lean/thick look from years past!! So, ladies, wish me luck on my new eating regimen: Breakfast- 2 oz lean protein and 1 cup of fruit. snack-2 oz lean protein and 1 cup of fruit. Lunch-2 oz lean protein, 1 cup of veggies and 1/2 cup of carb. Snack- 2 oz of lean protein, 1 cup of veggies. Dinner - 2 oz lean protein, 1 cup of veggies, 1/2 cup of carb. No salt, No oil and no Dairy. This is taken from the 6-week diet makeover. I've done it about 3 times in the past and I've lost the weight!!! You are guaranteed to lose 30 lbs in six weeks and I must say that it delivers!! However, in the past the loose saggy skin, made being overweight look glamorous!!! But now that I have a surgery date, with, whom it seems, to be one of the BEST in the business, I don't care what the skin is going to look like, but don't want to lose alot of the fat, cuz I need it for the BBL!!!! And with Duran around to "tighten" things up, I am going for the gusto! However, I have to remember that once I lose the weight, I will have to maintain that number on the scale, cuz, 6 weeks will only bring me to the end of September, and then I will have to MAKE SURE THAT I DON'T REGAIN BECUZ I WILL STILL HAVE 21/4 MONTHS BEFORE MY SX DATE. sO WISH ME LUCK!!!!! When I do lose the weight, I have decided that I will put up my BEFORE the weight loss and sx pics, then I will put up the pics after losiing weight, but before the sx, and then I will put up the AFTER weight loss and sx pics. I think seeing the transformation will be kinda nice, and hopefully will inspire or encourage someone else to take that giant leap into being ALL that they can and wanna be PHYSICALLY! We all know, or maybe most of us, know how we can get to the point where we are made to believe that since we made a mess of our bodies, thats it, we just have to live with it. And go thru each day feeling worse and worse about ourselves, watching, wishing, envying others look good in their clothes, exude enormous amounts of self confidence while we just sit and wonder, "what the heck happened". Well now hopefully as people follow my journey, OUR journey, we can impart into them with our stories, hope and the realization, that....IT AIN'T OVER, TILL IT'S OVER!!!!! GOD BLESS LADIES AND GOOD HEALTH, SPEEDY AND SAFE RECOVERY TO ALL!!!!!
