With all the research that I have done, I have decided to become a Fatima doll!! Although I've had surgery before, gastric sleeve, breast reduction, small tummy tuck, this particular one makes me a little nervous, because I'm planning to do a lot more work at one time. My main concern is the additional cost that I may not have budgeted for. For the $5,200 I was quoted I will be getting a BBL, LIPO ABS, BACK, FLANKS, WAIST, ARMPITS, INNER THIGHS (depending on my bmi and HEMOGLOBIN count) 10-day stay in a recovery house plus meals, labs, 1-night stay in the clinic, POST-OP GARMENT, and post-op meds( which I may get from my dr here in the states) transportation.she also quoted me $25-30 per Massage and $55 per day for my travel partner who will be staying with me at the recovery home. Is there ANYTHING besides my flight that I may not have budgeted for?

Hi! Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to following your journey! I'm planning to surgery January 2017! I haven't settled on a dr yet. But it's between Almonte, Mendina, Robles and Duran!

You should add in the 150.00 emergency fee (mandatory) cost of an additional garment or two, your going to need additional spending money in the event of an emergency, Lesly suggested $600.00. There is also a $10.00 fee at the airport for the visa card and $30.00 us departure tax due at the airport when departing DR. You may want to include $$ for tipping (totally up to you).

She did mention the $150 for medical insurance and the $10 for the travel card, but failed to mention the $30 departure tax! I can probably wait to get my stage 2 garment here in the states. And I will DEFINITELY tip!. Do you have any RH that you could recomend? I was supposed to stay at Tropical Recovery House but they got such HORRIBLE reviews...
June 10, 2016
Still researching RH, my sx date is December 8th. Pretty much looking at reviews here, FB and on IG to help decide. I've heard good things about My Home. Have you checked them yet?

Mines was to! I went on YouTube and looked up: how to lose 10lbs. In a week,and it worked! You got this! Anytime I thought about eating something I know I shouldn't eat, I would tell myself: DO you want to eat that, or do you want your BBL? also, I ate El Polo Loco under 500 calories chicken salad and drank the NAKED veggie drink and the veggie vitality at Jamba juice to boost my iron. And a lot of water! YOU CAN DO IT!!
July 31, 2016
Thanks boo so u was able to reach the bmi she required imma tey to loose 10 pounds before surgery its better then nuffin but i see her doing a lot of plus size wiman to and i no thry bmi is no 35 one lady said hers was a 37
July 31, 2016
I didn't want to take any chances on not getting my surgery done. So I did everything I could to get my BMI down and my Iron up!
July 31, 2016
Yes i no thats right im dieting now and just dtinking lots of water and and taking my iron and folic acid pills 3 times a day.did your pressure go up during or after surgery or it was normal hun?
July 31, 2016
It remained normal.
