55+ Glam Ma-TT, BBL,and Liposculpture-Soon to Be Leon Goddess! - Dominican Republic

Divas, I hope all of you and your families have a wonderful holiday! I am sooo pleased with myself so far! My measurements as of 12/25/15 1 month surgery anniversary 38-28-43! Will keep you divas posted! Til next time all of you remember the reason for this season and be careful! xoxo

Well, divas Dr. Leon wanted me to wait a month before going to a stage 2 CG. When I returned home I was 175 lbs(down from 181)with a 32 in waist! Now, I'm a 30 in waist! My CG kept rolling down like an accordion, and I didn't feel as if I was getting the compression to my back and abdomen I was getting in the beginning even using the lipo foam! I had the 2nd stage CG in a medium, so I put in on last night after shower in the 1st set of hooks! Felt a 100% better! I did use 1 lipo foam over my abdomen so there wouldn't be any rubbing on the navel, and put a tee shirt on top of that before putting on CG to prevent any burns! Haven't measured hips! I did order the capri style that includes a built in bra from Marena that was delivered today! Got it in a large based on 32 in waist measurement, but will try it on to see how it fits! If needed will get waist taken in, or return for smaller size! We'll see! Til next time divas! xoxo

Divas, that's what life is all about isn't it? Learning from our mistakes! So, hopefully you can learn from mine! You can travel with 1 suitcase! Might be a large one, but it can be done! Trust me when I say you don't want to be bothered with luggage returning home!
1. Any true RH should have their own supplies(i.e.gauze, tape, gloves, chux, etc)! You do not need to pack and travel with these items. The hospital Dr. Leon uses(PlasticMedic)does have chux also, and blankets! Yes, I packed a queen assed size blanket because I thought the hospital wouldn't have one as I'd read from so many reviews on RS!
2. Don't need a funnel for peeing. I was trying to pee standing up! Went everywhere but toilet. Arelis had to take my TED stockings off and wash them! She asked me why I was peeing that way? Again, stuff I'd read on RS! She said I could sit the regular way! Gingerly I tried it, and I could! No pain getting up or down! Thighs were sore from Lipo, but that was it! Threw my pee funnel in trash!
3. Dr. Leon's dolls don't have to shower with any special soap before surgery! I did because I'd taken the Hibiclens with me, but it's not necessary for him!
4. Not 1 time did I hear anything about Arnica tablets or gel! The massage therapists have thier own oils that they use! I took the tablets only because I'd started them before surgery for the bruising so kept it up. I use the gel to rub my inner things which are bruised from the Lovenox injections! Even now!
5. Wheelchair assistance is a life and time saver! Get it for your return trip home!
6. Bedrooms in RH are all individually controlled for AC. The common areas do not have AC, but I was fine with that because being on the 6th floor it was cooler, and they did have fans going!
7. If you're a snacker take your snacks! Arelis won't give you junk food! I had to bargain with her for my treats-eat her breakfast and lunch and I could have Chinese for dinner! LOL!
8. Stick with the sports bras! I tried a regular bra the other night and my ribs had all kinds of
shooting pains! Got up and put on sports bra-no pain!
9.Get your Tourist Card online before you go! Airline will give you Declaration form on plane to fill out for immigration. By the time you land in Santo Domingo you may be able to breeze through Immigration because they're turning most of the travelers back to go get their Tourist Card! That's how it worked for me!
That's it for now, divas! If I think of anything else you guys will be the first to know! xoxo
