Hey everyone, I am Legacy , and here is how my personal journey started . Do you all remember shows like DR. 90210 or Extreme Makeover . Well after watching these shows and doing my homework. I started planning my trip to Los, Angeles in 2009, I saw a few doctors (see pics). I thought I had made up my mind with Dr. Griffin . He was so nice, respectful and answered all of my questions. HIs price was like Woooow, (but even still I was ready to pay until read on) My sister had went along with me, and asked many questions as well. I was told to lose 40 pounds before surgery so I would look my best. I returned back to my city and started working on my next trip so I could get all my work done . In the beginning I wanted a tummy tuck and boob job. I was so getting this money right then my doctor said you know I think I have a great idea for you. She knew I had tried all types of weight loss diets. Then she said do your research on sleeve surgery. After looking into it, and not having to come out of pocket , I was like yup this is for me. I had a few test done, group meetings and blood work ,and I two more test I can't think of right now, before I could get it done. I also had to go see a therapist for a month (like I really felt like telling her my life) lol. Remember not everyone is supportive about plastic surgery or any surgery you choose to have, so only tell those who u feel will have your back no matter what! ( yup, I told a few family members and friends and they were not team Legacy , so I decided , they will no longer hear about my journey for me!!!!!!) I got it all done and was well on my way for (Vertical Sleeve Surgery). 03/18/2013 was my day. I was so excited and scared at the same time. I went in early with my boyfriend and my son. I kiss them bye and was like I will see ya'll soon. The sleeve surgery was from 12:00 noon and done at 4:00pm . I had to be at the hospital at 7:00 am. Just to get the ball rolling , you know finish up some unsigned paper work and get all hooked up to many things in the operating room. OK, I made it out . I was so out of it my Boyfriend said. I kept coming in and out saying I made the first step, now I am ready to work even harder to get my weight down . I was 265 and came down to 170 but still was not happy with my weight. Yes my clothes fit better but I still had this tummy and my boobs look sad to me. I tell you after going back to work everybody was like wooooooow you lost so much weight, the attention was crazy. My Dr. Aley EL -Din Tohamy, he is the best and very respectful. I liked the attention but hated it as well. Funny right, In my mind I still wasn't done yet . I am now planning my second surgery, which will be with Dr. Andrew Jimerson Aka (Dr. Jcurves) Yup as seen on TV, (LOVE AND HIP-HOP) Atlanta Board Certified Plastic Surgeon! Ok, I almost forgot to say what I am having done. Buttock Augmentation with fat grafting with a full tummy tuck , the following year I will be having my breast done by him as well. As you know I am knew to this site, I recently read so many things about the Dominican republic and started looking on youtube and watching some videos about some of the women here in the states that had gone down there and had some work done . I was like Wow! I HAVE NOTHING BUT THE UP MOST RESPECT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY DONE IT , AND LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!! But I just don't think that's for me, (WHY) I read both good and bad stories about going and not being treated right at these recovery houses. I am the type that can't stand pain so I know I would have to be in the states ( I need the right type of meds on time so I good). The fact that the meds they give you after surgery are not strong enough for surgery type pain has me blown away! Also note, I had already seen 12 dr.'s before making my mind up . Well I already know I will in Atlanta Ga, at my sister's house for my recovery and my other sister will be flying with me is a RN so I feel like I will be in the best of care at my sister house (also with God on my side I can do anything!!). The cost of things I am going grab from Walmart before we fly out still have yet to put a cost but knowing me $300 or less. I know I need to get my hair braided so I can leave it in for at least 1month cost $200( plus designer touch oil sheen and Dax pomade with lanolin, bergamot, olive oil, and castor oil $10.20 from my local hair store. Soon as we touch down ATL, my sisters and I will go food shopping. My sister who is traveling with me will meet me in my city (she is flying in). Then two days before we leave for ATL . We shall go over my packing list . ( I will make a video). I will be eating lighter than normal right after surgery so I will grab some protein shakes and chewy vitamins cases of water, two bags of ice. Anyway I will post pics of all my stuff with prices . (sharing is caring) !!!!!!!!!! Here are a few pics to start off. Soon to be a J.Curve Doll! Facts!
This Starts from 2003 After I Had my Son. (I AM A SOON TO BE A DR. O DOLL! FACTS!)

$4,000 - Andrew Jimerson, MD, Duluth, GA
Hey everyone, I am Legacy , and here is how my...
Here are some of my wish pics. ( FYI I dont really want to look like these women just a better me) But I think you get the body
I have been on the web all day looking for pics that are maybe close to my body . My shape is something like Shekinah from (Ti and Tiny show) . I am 5'3 and 170 in weight. I have very smooth skin and the fact that I am dark skin is even better , when it comes to scars. I heal very well but my scars, I can see lightly. Its like they heal like a keloid then get flat and smooth right in my skin, sounds crazy, I know but I am just trying to give you a better understanding. I am thick and short.
So I am on instagram and out of the blue (RAH ALI) FROM LOVE AND HIP-HOP
Her body is right........ It's just how I see my new profile after I am Dr. Jcurves Certified. I will post some pics later today. But if yall have an instagram go see what I am talking about. You will be like yup she is official. lol I have a question for yall ladies, does anyone have sciatica ? Let me break it down for you (why) I recently had a slip and fall (at work) and had to have knee surgery. I am now 2 months and 3 weeks out of that, but I started having pain in my booty. So, I spoke with my doctor and after looking at my MRI he said my lower back pain is coming from my disk which is pinching my sciatic nerve. Yes, I am in therapy for my knee and it's has improved, but this pain in my booty meat is there. I can't sit long because it hurts and standing for long is already a no no but it feels better at times. I have workouts that I do to help. I recently had shots in my lower back to help as well with pain. The fact of the matter is I am know I am still getting my bbl with fat grafting, plus boobs the flowing year. I am just healing up so by the time next year comes I am physically ready for my journey.
Ok, So I Reading So Many Different Reviews

AS OF MARCH 2, 2015 7:58:23 pst ( I am now an O doll to be)
I put down my deposit. My day is March 22, 2016 . Which is my birthday! I am excited and I really can't wait! I have wanted my surgery for so long and now after 12 doctors later and almost becoming a Dr. Jimerson doll, I picked Dr. Oaskatukei Omulepu. I personally enjoyed the consultation and asked as many questions. My coordinator Jessica is the most sweetest. I can tell she really loves her job and also cares about the need of plastic surgery, not to mention she is a Dr. O doll as well!
So, I am thinking of taking a private jet or train home (I am not messing up my new booty)
I just want to relax after my surgery and heal well. I don't want any issues with sitting on a plane. So I am looking into a private jet or train with a bed or coach to lay on while I am on my way home. Has anyone done this as well?
TRYING TO CHECK WHICH IS BETTER ?????
( I know both are pricy but I got it!) Every Birthday is always pricy! I have to just thank God!
So I PICKED UP SOME BOOKS FOR HEALING ! WITH GOD EVERYTHING WILL BE DONE! AMEN!
I spoke with God, and asked for his help, with making my personal decision on what doctor to choose for my surgery. I have researched so many traveled to a few states looking for the best doctor. God made me wait and put this on hold just so I could see and hear what all of these doctors had to say. I had the money for my surgery so long ago, but I just couldn't do it yet. I felt something come over me , Wait for there is still much you don't know and will need to know. This night I was watching you-tube videos and I became obsessed with one women story about her surgery. How she went to Dominican Republic instead of the states . She spoke about weight loss surgery, and how she now was ready for (plastic surgery) a mommy makeover. The fact that she filed for bankruty , this was cheaper , but it also was more painful. Happy to say she made it and came back on you-tube to speak about it. Alone in DR , and away from her kid . I know she was praying and God answered ! The healing was no joke but she pushed and showed the world look I made a way and I pray, The Good Lord will hear me. After watching her video twice I looked online and found RealSelf.com because of her and I am very thankful and excited about my own personal journey . I found my doctor , I paid my money and now I am waiting until next month to book my flight for next year and train tickets. I am so blessed to have both of my sisters and fiancée come with me . I am shopping slowly for a few things before I go, But when we hit Miami I shall grab some things form Walmart .
WHILE IN MIAMI ( things I will have in the hotel or house I rent for these
Airbnb.com check it out! for nice rental homes, rooms, or condo's cheaper than hotel! plus when I say nice , I mean it.
So I picked up these things over the weekend
So, I picked up this pillow with is a pregnancy pillow, which rolls up. I took a picture of the back of the pillow as well and old navy slippers.
Trying to figure out how I want my hair braided.....
