Hope everyone is doing good! Just wanted to share a quick update. I'm at 1 1/2 year post....... and really there is no significant change. The only thing I can say is that exercising and healthy eating is a must to maintain results. Around March I started to pick up weight......I had to really hit the gym hard....and maintain a 1200 calorie diet. What motivated me was when I tried on my bathing suit and was like NOLL.....LOL I worked tooo hard.....I love thickness along with toneness....There is no other way around this unless going for a round 2 or round 3 which is fine if that's what a person wants to do, but I just wanted to go hard first and see what happens. Well that's about it.... short and to the point.....Currently I just want my back and arms to smooth out a little more....I will see what happens.....: ) God Bless Yoll!!

I don't know if you check this sight anymore, but if you do you look great. I read your story and the comments and noticed your iron and thyroid were a problem. You might want to have your family doctor check your iron. Individuals with low hemoglobin and high ferritin usually have an iron storage disease such as hemochromatosis. This is very serious, but manageable with a hematologist. Also, people who have low or high ferritin and hemoglobin problems tend to have a lot of inflammation in their bodies which make it extremely hard for the thyroid to work even with medication. I have personal experience with hemoglobin, ferritin, and hypothyroidism. It took me years and a lot of doctors and research to figure all this out. So I hope this saves you some trouble since most doctors treat one thing they specialize in. If you find this to not apply to you that's fine, but if you want any further information please don't hesitate to reply. Best of Luck

So are you! For sure, I will update around that time. Going to get my "Tummy Tuck tattoo" and belly pierced this year. More than likely "2019" will be my final post. Currently working hard on my body by putting on muscle. Wishing you the best with your healing!

This makes me sick to my stomach. God please bring healing to her family and allow her soul to rest in your embrace...

I so hate to report on natures such as these; however it has to be put out there to help or possibly save the life of another

Sista, let me tell you how i read this story and it hurt me to my heart. We have so many similarities, I'm a married mother of two daughters as well, I'm in my mid 30's too. I also saw imperfections in my body that I figured sx could and would fix. I say all of that to say I know when it's your time to go it's your time to go and God doesn't make no mistakes but I'm seriously reconsidering my round 2, may God bless her two daughters who probably saw their mom as perfect and will probably never understand what and why this happened to their mommy. I think of my girls and my husband. What could anyone say to them? So with that being said my round 2 might be cancelled yall, because at the end of the day km not trying to be perfect. Just pleased with me when I look in the mirror and I must say, yes I have some extra skin on my back, and yes I feel my arms could be smaller and my breasts could use a lift with implant, but guess what guys my husband makes me feel like I have had those things done already and ain't nobody else seeing me naked but him so I might just chill with that round 2 stuff. As I said we look in the mirror and we can always find something to tweak. Who knows I might just feel like this because Nikisha Lewis may she rest in peace just passed away or it may be a permanent feeling and I won't do a round 2. Whatever it is may God bless me as well as all the future dolls out there.

Amen Sis.... These incidents really do make you rethink things....One thing I have noticed....it appears that many of the deaths are associated with BBL's...with the surgeons injecting the fat incorrectly. Needless to say, be safe lady, and God Bless you girl with whatever choice you make. The main thing is to make sure you have peace in your spirit when making your choice.

Well this is it! Words can't describe how I feel. It's been a crazy ride but I'm so beyond happy I did this for myself. Wishing nothing but the best for all those who are considering this procedure and those that are in the healing process! My review is so long and extensive I'm going to try and make this short and to the point. After one year I STILL HAVE SWELLING AT NIGHT....not major very mild but it's still there....do I see imperfections...of course....there is no perfect surgery, and the eye can be tricky because we can start to look at what is wrong rather than what is right. Have I've gain weight? Of course 10 pounds from when I was post op..weight gain gave me a natural BBL, and a shelf butt which I don't like but hey it's the nature of the beast. I've been dieting and working out really hard...now I'm 70% Vegan....because on the weekends or if I'm going out I'm going to eat LOL...I workout everyday just about give or take a two...I love P90X especially the "KENPO" workouts... that's my favorite and it has really helped me.

I've considered round 2 for arm lipo and flanks than decided to buss my *** in the gym for the next four months and see what happens first....I don't want to become a women who is obsessive over having the perfect body.... because for me it's much more to life than that. My goal for this surgery was just to improve my appearance not perfect it and that's what I did. Well that's pretty much it. I promised to keep this post updated from start to finish AND SO HAPPY I STAYED TRUE TO MY WORD..I pray this post helps someone as well as encourage. In the past I haven't really been one to post many pictures, I've tried to keep it short and to the point. The pictures I'm posted I hope are revealing and detailed enough, I try not to show to much skin; but a little skin doesn't hurt anyone. Wishing you ladies nothing but the best.

Also for those who are waiting perhaps "financial reasons" or need to drop more weight...please...please..please...continue to be your best version of yourself.... eat healthy and take care of yourself, you will feel better when that day come for surgery. Sitting in limbo wishing and wanting this surgery when the time does not present itself is pure torture! Been there done that....Had to wait an entire year and within that year I dropped 23 pounds before my surgery.

Well that's it for know God Bless you Ladies AND PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!! Women have died from Tummy Tucks it's not a game and your life is valuable. Don't be so eager, pray take a deep breath and listen to your heart, read stories...just don't fall in love with sexy pictures because some people DO NOT REPORT ALL THE DETAILS OF SOME OF THE PROBLEMS THAT CAME with the surgery...just nice pictures leaving details out....Okay well that's it for now...this was a roller coaster ride and I'm finally getting off! : ) : ) xoxo

**On a Side Note** I'm still excited and happy (with my results) have to add that Almonte did a wonderful job and I'm more than pleased with my results, not having a BBL, or Full Lipsculture SHE DID THAT!!**

Oh cool girl!! The Dominican culture is so down to earth and friendly. The women there were so nice and approachable, I remember we went to the mall and the Dominican girls were helping us translate likewise the men as well. They were really cool
