Hi everyone. I am scheduled for a tt, lipo to fill back and flanks, muscle repair, and bbl in February. I am currently 198lbs and 5'4". I was told the bmi has to be under 33, so I'm thinking I need to be 32( lol). So I plan to be 185 by my sx date which is my lowest weight since middle school. I am seeing some ladies say they are 5'5" and 180 and need to lose to clear for bmi. I'm wondering have the bmi requirements changed.

She told me in email that my BMI needed to be under 33 as well, but some of the girls on here based on their height and weight seem to be over BMI based on my complications, and I havent seen anyone say they had problems. I think the only requirement that is strictly enforced is the hemo level, but I havent had my surgery yet so I cant say with certainty. I am 5'7" and I bounce from 190-200 so I hover around 30-31. I think you should try to lose as much weight as you can before the surgery so you can get the best results, but I dont think it will be a deal breaker.

I currently lost 6lbs since I made my deposit. 10 more and I'll be a little right under 33. I'm trying to lose 15 more tho because I have a lot of back fat and I want to get the best result I can the first time. I don't want to have to go back for touch up. Are you going to Medina too?
October 25, 2015
I am. I will be having surgery on 11/2 I am planning to have lipo, tt, breast lift with implants and BBL. I am having a horrible time losing weight right now. The iron has caused my period to come back which I havent had in months (I think because of the amount of working out I do) and I am eating everything in sight. I really wanted to get down to 180 before my surgery but that doesnt seem possible right now because I have no self control. If you are not going until February you have plenty of time.

They really are, but at the same time not fast enough lol. I'm going to use my HSA card from my job to buy all of my vitamins and supplies this week and start my vitamins. The real struggle is to stop smoking. I've been able to cut back, but the mornings are when I crave it the most. I'm so mad I have this bad habit, but I have faith I'll be able to stop, I've been able to lose the weight needed so I'm going to try to remain strong. I hope I get to meet you in passing.

Think about the amazing body you'll have after ur surgery and that should help motivate u to stop smoking. Do it gradually. I've already started purchasing things to bring. Are u bringing anything else not mentioned on the list of supplies?

I'm going to try to keep it light. I'm a chronic over packer. Because I live in WI, I will be bringing winter clothes for the way back, but o can't think of anything else. Well all of my wish pics lol, but mainly pads, sanitary things, and chux, I don't want my faja to be bloody.. that should be the least of my concerns eh lol

Omg yes! I'm an over packer too! I'm traveling from NY n I'm planning on just bringing sweatpants n a sweater for the way back. I heard jeans are a no-no for a while after u get a bbl. I'm so nervous and excited all in one. It's gonna be my second TT so I know what to expect but I've never had Lipo n I'm hearing that's no joke. Hopefully I'll see u there. I will be staying at My Home RH.

That's where I will be staying. In going to bring yogo pants and leggings. I'm just curious as to what size I will be. I read a girl went in a 15 and came out a 8 lol. Did you get your last tt in the DR?
User Avatar
November 18, 2015
No I had my last TT in NY. I thought I was done having babies and well.. I was wrong! Lol so I'm going back to fix my muscle diastasis. It became undone with my last pregnancy. I could use a little Lipo as well and why not throw in some booty while I'm at it lol. I had a BA when I first had my TT so I'm good in that dept. I'm not looking to loose drastic weight. I'm 5'6 145lbs. I just need some booty n a more defined waist. I'm hoping Dr Medina will help me achieve that :)

I can't wait to see your results! That's why I'm continuing to loose as much as possible for myself and because your results are better when you're in better shape. I'm 5'4 196lbs. The majority of my teens thru mid 20's I was between 240-280, 306 being the highest. After getting down to 200 if was almost impossible to get under 200. I finally did going on the hcg diet and I maintained it for about a year. I will post some pics closer to my surgery date but I have back rolls that I'm hoping she can smooth out. When I lift the fat my back is actually small so I'm hoping for a nice Latina booty!

I am scheduled for February 3rd. I'm not sure about the recovery house yet. I hope we have all made the right decision choosing Dr. Medina

I just sent a deposit to Robles. I chose her because she was consistent with the contouring of square and apple bodies. I haven't chose a recovery house yet. I'm excited tho! 23 days away or my count could be off

Wish pics playing with the plastic surgery app. I'm looking to get a bbl with most of the fat put in the sides and bottom, similar to a Latina booty. Is there a certain name for this shape?

Thanks!! I just looked at you updates, did you decide who you were going to do a round 2 with?
User Avatar
December 4, 2015
I had round 2 in May 2015 with Fisher. I put up 3 different reviews for round 1, round 2, and my TT. Round 1 went terribly and was in Houston, TX. I've come a long way lol

Aww, I thought they would all be combined, but k just looked at your a few days ago wth the Timmy tuck. I'm glad you are now satisfied. I'm trying to prepare myself for this mentally.

Ohh doctors don't perform a bbl with a TT at the same time because for a TT you can't lay on belly so you won't stretch the incision wide open and because you have 2 drains in that front area, plus that abdominal area needs to heel and laying on it will affect the healing AND for a bbl you can't lay on butt or hips so fat won't die and so there won't be volume loss. If done together you can't be on stomach or butt/hips so the only option would be to stand up non-stop, even to sleep and that's not realistic. Lol. I knowww and your date will be here in no time! I know you must be excited!

I'm going to the DR and some doctored here do them combined. They do the back lipo and bbl, then flip you over and tt. I have 2 clients who have had both done about a year ago, one be Fatima Almonte and the other by Tania Medina. I asked how did they sleep and lay. So I'm buying triangle pillows and more pillows. I found a way to lay on my back with the pillow propped under my back and thighs to keep pressure off of my butt. I also have a recliner. So I'm just enjoying sleeping comfy now because I know that will all end for at least a month.

Oh and I was talking about your pics and updates being combined because I was following your old update already and didn't see your most recent one until I scrolled down your profile and it said I wasn't following that one. I'm still learning how to use realself lol.

Oh that's great you figured it out! It saves you time and money! And yeah lol for each different procedure, you should make a different review cause that way you can rate each procedure separately and share separate experience. It's easier for people who are looking to know exactly what you had done. Lol. If all were combined then that require a lot of scrolling down and reading to figure what the person had done each time. Don't worry you will get the hang of it! Did you book your flight already? After New Years the prices usually go way down.

I booked my way there a few weeks ago and I'm going to book my way back early Jan. I'm waiting on my passport now. My boyfriend wanted my to go to Miami or somewhere in the states but after looking on here, docs here are not all that great all the time. I'm worried about my hemo and still have to drop 10 more lbs.
User Avatar
December 4, 2015
Yeah I agree with you, they can surely sculpt the body. And I understand your boyfriend too. There are pros and cons of doctors out of the U.S. and doctors in the U.S. For your hemo, have you talked to your primary doctor in the U.S? When going out of the country for surgery, it's really important that you are medically cleared. I saw a few people say that almost all girls need blood transfusions when they go out of the country, but I'm not sure or not if that is always the case.

I'm scheduled for a full preop check up at the beginning of Jan. I've had a csection before and a kidney stone surgery and I recovered pretty good with both. But I started smoking heavily the last 3 years.

Oh yeah I saw you wrote that. I heard it's really hard to stop, but you can do it! Oh ok, so you're strong, you can definitely handle a TT and bbl together.

I'm 2 months 9 days pre and I'm now starting tho think about it more and more. When I lay in bed I practice sleeping with pillows under my back and thighs to take pressure off of the bbl I'm supposed to be getting. It seems to work, although dyer a while my back aches a little. I'm just starting my vitamins today, not sure if I'm going to do the sstonic or irons pills... Might get both. I'm going to start purchasing more of the things on my travel list and finish getting the rest of my money together. It's getting real guys. 9 more days to stop smoking, the cutting back has been getting easier!
