Invest in Yourself !!!

One of the most important things that I've learned on this journey is that the way you feel about yourself is the most important thing to focus on . If your not happy with your body then do something about it . Either through exercise or cosmetic surgery .Don't have second thoughts don't worry about how any body feels about your journey , what matters most is the way you feel about yourself and having self confidence !!! Invest in YOURSELF !!

How I feel today !

So it’s been just over 1 year 3 months since I had Lipo & BBL with Dr.Duran in D.R. I have gone through just about every emotion possible throughout this journey . I’ve experienced excitement, happiness, sadness, regret, tears, confusion, joy, and then a yearning for more. This journey is definitely not for the light-hearted. In D.R. I had a very hard time being away from my children and my husband and I found solace in being with some amazing people that helped me through the journey. We still speak at least twice a week and we are all thinking about going for a Round 2.Surgery is very addicting, it’s like once you pop, and you can’t stopI knew early on that there was an issue with my stomach, but I continued to do the massages and I hoped it would go away. Dr.Duran told me to do endermologie treatments, but the lumpiness would not go away with endermologie treatments. I gained weight just to be able to have lipo and a bbl done, and it kind of backfired on me. My stomach was so much better before and now I’m left with this deformed, lumpy stomach, especially when I sit down. At times it’s lumpier than others, and sometimes I feel okay wearing a crop top but a majority of the time I don’t feel comfortable, because I know if I sit down, it’s going to look horrendous. I do regret doing my arms, at times they are still tender and they are still lumpy. I should’ve never had them lipoed L I don’t think Dr.Duran is at fault, I told her I wanted a bigggg butt and for her to remove as much fat as she could. She tried to talk me out of it but I went to D.R. on a mission and I needed to accomplish it!!!I’m happy with my results but after some fat that was transfer dissolved (especially from my hips and laterals), I want to go back for Round 2. I have contacted Duran, Cabral, Contreras, Medina, and Yily . I got quotes almost immediately. I also contacted Cortez and Correa in Colombia, I received quotes from them immediately too. I will post another update with all the quote info soon.

Dr.Duran changed my body and the way I feel when I'm trying on clothes . I've always been SUPER CONFIDENT but she has enhanced that , I love trying on clothes even more than I did before & what girl doesn't like to shop ? I don't really like having to constantly call Dr.Durans office and then not picking up but then again it's in another country . I didn't have to wait while in Dr.Durans office , in fact she took me a day early & in front of my other surgery buddies because I was "small" . I loved her bedside manner , but I just wish she had done a follow up phone call . Maybe I'm asking for too much because she is extremely busy & I know what I signed up for . I contacted her to let her see photos of my stomach & to see how much she would charge me to fix it but she said it was too early and I should go get endermologie done . Ughhhh , I got 2 different types of massages for 6 months post op & at that point I wAs just exhausted & disappointed . At times my stomach is harder & lumpier than other times , but I can still rock the hell out of a crop top , I just feel very self conscious sometimes . Everyone tells me it's not bad & that I look dope , but we're all our own biggest critics . So here I am 11 months post op with results , I'm happy with . Duran may have been too aggressive on the lipo of my stomach but I guess she tried to maximize the amount of fat she took out because of the wish pics I showed her . I wanted a big juicy booty & she just wanted to give me more feminine curves , but I insisted on a Stephanie Santiago booty (even though Duran said it would not be possible because Stephanie Santiago got silicone injections ) & she said she would try her best . So my advice is this realize that 1 surgery may not make you exactly like your wish pics but it should bring you closer to your wish pics than you are today :)
