going on 12 weeks and very happy!!

hello everyone i am checking in, lol.
i feel 90% normal!! i still have some tighness and swelling in places but i am looking great. i will post recent pics soon. i am very attached to my faja after hating it so much. i have been out socially without it and everything was fine, no bloating but i felt weird. i felt like my gut was going to pop out over my jeans lol but i dont have one anymore :). i must admit that i have worn a crop top and low jeans...and it was awesome.

I am absolutely amazed at the way you look!!! I really cannot wait for my surgery....still contemplating if I should change the Dr that I had decided on. I need TT, lypo...and probably my arms too
thank you!! i wish you the best on your journey!!! usually your first choice is the best.
Did the doctor give you any compression sleeves for your arms? Did you a 2nd pair?
Yes Duran gave me the compression sleeves. It was included with my procedure. It was given to me along with my faja. I haven't gotten the 2nd smaller one yet...I'm looking into getting a faja with the sleeves next.
Thank you so much! I'm hoping Baez does the same.
Can I please get some info where I can get a hold of Dr Duran.
How is thé arm lift scar hearing?
how much did you spend flight, stay, and procedure, wondering if its worth to go so far ;) thanks,,btw you look amazing
I love it doll, I wanted my arms done as well with bbl, tt and lipo but Dr HECTOR CABRAL said that I have to come back because it's not safe to do all at once but I see u did it. I'm going to call monday and ask maria because he emailed me and said that.

ALMOST 7 WEEKS A DURAN DOLL :)

hi all, everday "everything" gets better lol. i still get amazed when i see myself and it is only the beginning!!! i still have some swelling in areas and my tummy is kinda tight still but it's all good. my arms are wiggle jiggle free!!! and they look awesome. the scar is getting white and it is flat this is a big plus for me. the scar on my tummy is neat and super thin, its even invisble in parts. i am very impressed with my healing and scarring yay! i do have so moments where i have like a "weird feeling" its like a dream like feeling (like when you wake up and you feel out of place...). i just shake of that feeling quick and look in the mirror :). i am so greatful (to god above all) for everyone who has helped me, especially the help i had at dominga's. i am also greatful that i am having a good experience before, during, and after my procedures, i think this is even more important than my results. the biggest advice i have for upcomming dolls will be please be safe! please check your self out (visit a doctor, be upto date with your health) before going to get any procedure done. make sure your healthy and can get a surgery done and if you cannot pleaseeeeee do not even think twice about trying to.

Hi Golda Flaca :) I've been quoted with Dra. Duran already. Just waiting to call tomorrow so I can speak to her secretary about a date. I wanted to ask you if you still have Domingas info?! U speak so highly of her and would like her info please. Thanks and glad to hear you are doing and looking good :D
thank you for the compliment, your so sweet! you can look for Dominga Diaz (luchy) on facebook thats how i got all her info before. good luck with your up coming surgery!! keep me posted!
Thank u :)
Hey Golda....can you send me the information on where you stayed? For some reason, I do not seem to be able to locate this recovery house in Facebook...thanks
https://www.facebook.com/#!/delapazdiaz.dominga?fref=ts
I went to that site, but it does say anything about this location... Is it a real recovery home with nurses....do they have prices somewhere a. Thanks

thank you for posting this info up, i dont get on too often. i registered to the airbnb.com and then messaged dominga from there. when i got all the info i need and confirmed she had the room available for me i just booked the room on airbnb.
looking good nice body shape!!! How do you like your arm lift? Are yoi happy with the healing process nd work Duran done?
Thanks newimproved!! I am very happy with my healing and durans work, she's good at what she does
Wow You look GreaT!!! thanks for the pics. I was wondering if you were still 209lbs on the actual day of your surgery?
thanks caution! i was still the 209 at the surg date but all my labs were great. i have gotten checked in ny before i setup my trip to make sure i was good for any procedure. everybodies bmi and body is different and the surgeons are very strict on no doing a procedure on someone whos labs or weigt can place them at risk.
Wow you look great! I'm so happy to read that you stayed with Dominga. I'm headed to her place on the 13th. Do you have any recommendation on supplies to bring? And pain meds to bring?
thanks lina and good luck! you made a good choice in staying with Dominga! i only brought plain old tylenol for pain. i never used any pain meds and did not want to have a bad reaction far from home. duran would have given me a script for pain meds if i needed (but it was D.R. pain meds and i heard it is not as potent as US meds). i used a lot of chux (also called blue pads, puppy trainning pads). i put these on my bed and during my massages. i also used the over night maxi pads, triple antibiotic cream and a lot of always wipes and baby wipes. i thinks it would be a good idea to bring a small box of gloves...just in case. i was surprised that i really didnt need a lot of things other than what i would need for a vacay. sun dresses will be your best bet wardrobe wise, they are so easy to slip in and out of.
you look great, what is your weight now?
aww thanks! my current is 187.

Nice love the waist and hip ratio ❤️
