I want to be comfortable in clothes again. I'm tired of holding my children back because I'm to insecure to go places. Not being able to dress and feel confident after graduation and accomplishing my dream job. I have to move forward in that knowing no matter how many stairs I run or how many gyms I've tried or better yet paying for a trainer 1,300 a month for three months! I'm done and no matter how scared I get or stories I hear. I am doing this change for me and of course hope to wake up!

I keep running in to dr duran in the dominican republic. As a 1# option. This girl got arms thighs & brazilian butt lift for $3500 only. In the us just the bbl would cost 4500. & for 4 areas of water jet lipo in both arms waist flanks back fst stomach only it was quoted at &4750.. thats in wa. State. With a groupn. I think the Dominican Republic is most likely your best bet. Everyone os cackling themselves a 'duran doll' cause her work is sought after. Hotel was 65 a day worth 150 to & from place. Didnt say how long her hot stay was but it included some food & nurses on staff there where she stayed.

Yea I have heard a lot about Duran and Yily but Dr. Tactuk Luis has great reviews he doesn't have a package deal with a RH but his price quote was awesome all of his patients love the work and he seems to be diligent on your body. I hear his patients talk about how their not bruised and he follows up with them even after surgery. and he also helped me with choices rather going straight for TT I really wanted a BBL but another Dr. only gave me the TT option and I didn't like not being able to fix the main problem I have which I is no butt. So I the only thing I am concerned about is getting medication from the U.S I hear doctors don't support Americans leaving the country for sx. So not sure how that's all ganna work out anyway. Wish me luck

Hi, I am scheduled with Dr. Tactuk in September. Have you decided on him yet? I went off of reviews. Though there were few they were all excellent. I am so nervous yet excited. I want to feel comfortable in clothes again also. Although I wasn't looking for a tummy tuck, dr Tactuk recommended it from my pictures I sent. Did you secure a date yet? Do you know of anyone else who chose this dr? Thanks

How were the massages? What do you think worked best for you as far as creams go and even on the plane ride? Did you have to exchange any U.S. money?

Ok..I have plenty of bruises and I am a patient of Dr Tactuk. He does check on you often and I have my 2nd follow up on Monday. He is an artist and does leave bruises..I guess it depends on your body. Included in his quote is the Faja with arm compression and leg compression socks. Dr. Visits to and from along with quick responses to ANY questions. I harass him with all concerns lol and he responds quickly. The pain meds they give you here are a joke though. He did recommend I bring pain meds from US. If you have muscle relaxers or aleeve pm bring it. It is all worth it in the end. The 1st day is ok but the 2nd and 3rd days are pure hell. Lol sorry.. each day after gets a little better

Did you request your medication from your doctor here in the U.S? And how many chux did you go through? Did you need a lot of supplies? Sorry I'm getting closer to six date.

Good luck to you. May i ask what you are doing to lose the weight. My date is about a month away, smh

I completely took our soda and bread from my diet and figure since i'm always washing or sanitizing my hands I should drink a cup of water or have a drink at least. Simple way to remind myself to hydrate it like a natural now and I actually have way more energy. I've noticed to when I take my gummy vitamin B12 every morning it just gives me an extra boost.

Also have u looked up Arnica pellets? I'll be using that for recovery within my body also I'm trying cell food cream and also cell food for cell rejuvenation. I heard it's important to drink and eat pineapple. But I'm ganna also bring a drink that's called Shine organic pouches they sell on Amazon or Target their all very good but one specify one has Tumeric and so that's what I'll have once or even twice a day in recovery. I'm getting a BBL also so I'm ganna try a cream in that area called Penetrex. Hope this helps your so close to being confident again in your own body what a great feeling your ganna have. Don't forget you back scratcher I've heard you'll need one even though the itch might be hard to catch if you know what I mean being numb!
