Started off at 279lbs I'm 5'9 Duran said no way .....
WORTH IT$5,100
Started off at 279lbs I'm 5'9 Duran said no way ...Within a few months of diet and exercise I'm down to 217..yay me ..will continue to workout and exercise until I leave for DR
Sooo hard and frustrating getting a surgery date ..I went through Surgicoordinator ..but I'm finally getting it done..I sent my deposit yesterday and expecting to have sx either October.3 or 4th I should be getting a confirmation this afternoon ..
Anyway I'm scared to death now that it's actually coming together my biggest fear is the flight back home post surgery pain,swelling,layover it's giving me anxiety ..next biggest fear is being in a recovery house full of random strangers ..I'm not a social person and I don't know how that's gonna be then there's bringing this large sum of money with me ..anything can happen
Feel like I'm gonna have a panic attack but nothing is gonna stop this from happening ..I'm thirsty for a hot body..
Idk what else I can add at the moment but if you ladies can share your experiences flying post surgery and recovery house experiences that'd be great ..I told Surgicoordinator Laura I wanted to stay at Armonia I intend to at a at 10-12 days

Congrats on the weight loss, keep up the good work! girl, its wayyyy too soon for you to get anxiety. LOL. I'm less than 1 week away from flying to DR, I've been there before but not by myself. I don't know ANY of the females who are staying at the Rocio Ortega Rh where I'm staying but I'm going. You have time on your side to lock down a recovery house, get supplies,make sure your blood work is on point and hopefully find a female who is staying at the same Rh. You'll be fine!

Wow, amazing job on the weight loss!
I flew 6 hours a week and a half post op. I kneeled on a pillow on the floor most of the flight. It wasn't the most comfortable thing ever, but it wasn't too bad. I took a pain pill and drank a lot of water. I was pretty swollen at the end, but I was swollen anyway, lol!

Congratulations on your journey! I'm seeing Duran October 11th. This will be my first time and I was also concerned about flying post op. I'm actually staying for 15 days - I hope that's long enough so I won't have issues with the flight home.

Hey! I had the same weight issue with Dr. Ortega. I was 30lbs over weight and he wanted me to be at 200lbs max. I've been dieting and exercising as well lbs. What are you doing in detail ( if you don't mind :) to loose the weight? What's your diet like? For me I started the Military diet (3 days on 4 days off), I also do Herbalife on my 4 days off and I'm doing Zumba for my workout. I'm drinking my body weight in infused water as well. Thanks for sharing!

I cut out ALL fast food,carbs,starches..only veg I eat is raw kale lettuce spinach salads and steamed broccoli..no beef ..only boneless skinless chicken breast fish and shrimp..nothing fried only baked and grilled I do an hour of elliptical an hour on the treadmill and at least 30 min of weights..daily..for energy I drink a thermos of French vanilla flavored black coffee with a double shot of expresso and every morning with my vitamins and Iron I drink a sip of simply orange juice just to wash it down

I spoke with Laura •Surgicoordinator• I think she booked paradise for me ..because they have a hospital bed..she's waiting for them to confirm things with her..
Sadly but honestly ..I don't give a damn where I stay.. Just thirsty to get this surgery so I can 1..stop dieting and eat something delicious for a change and 2 flaunt my new ass

Hi can you please add my Instagram Duransdoll we have the same surgery date

Where are you flying from and any tips on booking a flight, did you have to ask for a wheelchair on your return flight and is it necessary to get a first class return flight for comfortability? I've only flew twice in my life.
May 3, 2016
My flight is coach..I wanted the least expensive flight possible ..I'm flying from Greensboro to Atlanta and from Atlanta to santo Domingo ..I called Expedia and they helped me book over the phone ..I had no idea how to book a flight on my own ..I'm going to request wheelchair service ..I have to call delta directly ..couldn't request it through Expedia if I could afford the first class is definitely go for it though ..but most people have been perfectly fine flying coach

Thankyou, I live in Pooler Georgia, so I'll leave Savannah Airport which is 10 mins away from where I live, then to Atlanta to Santo Domingo, if you don't mind me asking how much was your ticket round trip, thanks and I'll be following your journey, I'm trying to go September or October
May 3, 2016
I know ..I just wish it was a direct flight ..not interested in any layover post op
May 3, 2016
I know right, cause if I have to layover then that means I'm stuck at the airport all that time
May 4, 2016
If so, was it an upgrade to first class and if so why, hope this isn't a dumb question.

Weight gain !!
Sooo I've been slacking ..I figure since my surgery is 6months away I have time to eat things I like and take days off from the gym..well one beef patty and 6 jerk wings cost me 4lbs of weight gain overnight ..this is hella frustrating ..I want the best results possible so my goal is to get down to at LEAST 200lbs ..yesterday I weighed in at 216...I'm sure I can do it if I stay on track...anywhoo anybody going to Duran in October ...I don't wanna be alone

I doing the same trying to find someone thats going in Aug, I dont want to be alone ether ...lol Well good job on the weight lost.
April 30, 2016
You did not gain 4lbs overnight is the salt and carbs. Continue your journey it will come right off. Its a different story if you continue to eat like that I go through the same roller coster with my weight loss journey. You got this!!! Good Luck!
April 30, 2016
Thank you! That's what people keep telling me about these random gains water weight from salt..soooo I took it upon myself to buy salt free MRS.dash
Thanks for starting a review. Congrats on the weight loss and being eligible for surgery, that is tough work!
I know you said you aren't social, but you could try to meet some people in the travel buddy forum now so everyone in your RH isn't a stranger. Either way, keep us posted!
