***SELF REINVENTING BEGINS *** Fisher Doll 2016 - Miami, FL

After 2 years of lurking on realself I have finally found two doctors. Dr. fisher and Dr. Salzhauer both in Miami Florida. I have chosen to go with Dr. Fisher I am waiting to hear back from my coordinator on whats the next step. She gave me pricing and information but I have lot of questions. I sent in my photos and filled out my evaluation. She said she will review the information with Dr. Fisher and get back to me. Anyone who has ever been to the Vanity recovery home please send me info on what its like. I want to know if I should stay there or get my own hotel room and hire a helper. Please ladies all help and information is needed. I live in Chicago so going out of my comfort zone for this is really scary!!! I have no support system but I am sooo tired of feeling self conscious of my body. I can't wait.. It feels so unreal knowing I have finally started my journey.

I have told a few of my friends what I plan to do. A couple said they wanted to do it but the thought faded away from them. My very good friend aka tha bestie:) decided she was going to join me on my journey. She is booked for the same day with Dr. Fisher and we will be staying with each other out in Miami. We are going to rent a hotel and hire a nurse. I have been working with Esther she is a very busy woman :) I have read great reviews about her so shes my top nursing pick. We have decided to stay for 10 nights 11 days. Right now we are researching where to stay so that we don't have a far drive from Vanity. Esther told me that a 13 minute drive can turn into a 30 minute drive in traffic and I dont want to get stuck in that after sx. Anyone have any thoughts on where I should stay? BTW can you please leave comments on where you bought lipo foam and other products im having a hard time finding the lower back triangle lipo board. I will keep you peeps updated on my journey. an thanks for any help its greatly appreciated!!

I am 6 days away from getting on the plane and heading to miami. I'll be snap chatting my whole experience. My user is jaciii9 if you want to join me on my journey. I have been receiving packages all week that contain my supplies.
