1 month post op..... Celebrating!!!!

Today is EXACTLY one month since my surgery (8/12) and I can't be any happier! I've not had ANY major problems! No infections what so ever!!!! (Thank you Jesus!) it's been a journey that I would do again to get these results! I, personally, know 2 people who had their procedures done in the U.S. and their results have been no where near as good as what I am experiencing! I feel very bad for them because they paid sooooo much money for not so good results! Here are some pictures taken this morning. Dra Almonte is the best! Im still in contact with the office staff just to do check ins and send them updates!! I still get quick responded from the girls! I LOVE U GUYS!!!

LIPO FOAM-20 days post op

Doing very well. Just trying to get back into the swing of things around my home. LOVE being able to take a quick HOT shower!

So before I left I was given instruction to NOT get any massages for 7 days from the day my drain got pulled. I'm wanting to get one this week since I'm at those 6 days. There are areas of my back I can feel needs it!

Another thing before I left (not sure if I mentioned it before) but my Yaniris my massage Theripst was recommending me to start using lipo foam to help with the inflammation. Clinic didn't have any at the time that I could buy. So she took me to a store Salimed (or something like that) were I could purchase them locally However they were too excpensive where they used to be about $60 U.S. Dollars (according to Yaniris) they were now selling for $79 U.S. Dollars!!!! I said forget it I know I can find them cheaper once I get home. So I just order 5 boards from Amazon for $7.50 a board I ordered 5!
$7.50x5=$37.50 I plan to wrap them all the way around my torso. To prevent my faja from digging in.
I also ordered another 2nd stage faja so I can change into one while the other is washing. I have a small MARIAE and I feel like it's so stiff. I miss my XL DPrada it was very comfy!!! So I decided I would order a small DPravda one as well. This will help me decide which I will order in a few weeks for my XSMALL!

Well here is a picture of what my TT looks like some of the scabs are starting to fall off. I still wear a thin gauze just because I don't want the faja directly rubbing against the scabs and making them fall off too soon. Since I don't gave lipo foam yet I'm inserting a thick gauze on my lower belly as well

Counting down the days

I will soon be leaving Santo Domingo and my fly out quickly approaches. Tuesday will be my last clinic spot and I fly out on Wednesdsy the 26th.

Although I'm at that point where I have wished I was already home, I'm thinking ITS A LONG FLIGHT HOME!!!!

On a side note I had another massage today after clinic and without know it until after it was done .... I was on the last strip of the small hooks!!! I couldn't believe it!!!
I unfortunately could not maintain it by dinner time I was begging my hubby to help loosen it back to the first hook so I would be able to digest and be ready for bed early tonight!

There s a storm coming in.... Thank God it's no longer a hurricane we were not able to get out sooner! I can sea some clouds coming in over the sea. The moon is no longer visible so it's hard to see what the waves across the street look like.

Here is a picture from our hotel room of the Crown Plaza

Team ALMONTE all the way! She has the soul of an angle you can't help but what to hug her! She has transformed my body and sculpted it in a way I never thought I could ever afford or even thought possible to achieve. I am so blessed to be team Almonte!!! She is in high demand and very busy. When I have a follow appt with her she takes her time with me and explains everything that is going on and what to expect. She answers any questions I may have. Just so you know not all follow up appts are with her, they might be with her team and they have been really wonderful to me and my hubby!
