After my first round with Yily March 2013 like so many other girls I crossed over and thought for a split second I was satisfied. To be totally honest, I knew the moment after surgery even though I loved my body more than ever, I still didn't achieve the results I was hoping for. Going through this process was definitely a learning experience. This time I am truly going in with my eyes open. For those who don't know- Prepping for surgery (medical clearances, eating clean, working out, maintaining a reasonable weight) has many influences on your results in the long run. Gaining weight when you have a hard time keeping it on is a bad idea... You want your results tried and true when it comes down to it. After care is critical and it cannot be stressed enough. Don't be fool, sitting on your new precious buns WILL affect your results. If you are combining surgeries like I did it will be impossible to avoid, but keep it to a minimum. You will lose some fat on the bottom where you rest your weight- your garment can make or break you. Do not wear garments that squeeze your butt- this will ruin the shape. Many girls come out of this with butts that's look as if the cheeks are squeezed together or with a boxy shape from behind. This is because that is how the garment shapes you. You must have something in between your crack or it will looked smashed together. If you cut the butt out the shape around it matters. so many little things I wish I would have done differently. Don't get me wrong, I love my new body, but my round to will be to correct all of the details I feel can give me much better results. For one, I feel I lost volume in the bottom for having to put pressure there. It wasn't much but it definitely had an effect. I feel the majority of my fat was put towards building a shelf and not enough in the bottom. I also have puffiness where my drain was and I was that removed. Small roll under bra line must go and arms and torso still have fat for the taking. Yep, its round two... Im ready. Why Cabral? You already know....

Hello dolls! I've missed u all. U are probably thinking I just got my sx and dipped but really every aspect of my life changed after and it hit overwhelming. From coworkers to friends, men and women alike all look at u differently after.i never liked being the center of attention, but now I can't walk anywhere with SOMEONE commenting on my ass. Sometimes I appreciate the compliment but on those days where I'm moving quickly or just running to the store to grab something from the store in sweats there is always SOMEONE. I actually had a guy approach me, and we went on a date shortly after and his first reaction was "damn, I didn't realize your face was that pretty!" At one time that was my greatest asset so it's a little hurtful that it isn't a point of immediate focus anymore. Guys are actually shocked that I'm pretty,smh. Anyway on to the good stuff-:)

I love my body. With or without clothes it's spectacular. My stomach is flat and even though I wanted bigger hips im totally satisfied. Dresses show my shape off the best. Still have only found 2 pairs of jeans I can fit. I love crop tops, a luxury I could not afford before. My pre sx stats were 5'3", 161 lbs and 36-35-38 post sx 5'3" 147lbs 32-27-42. I have to be honest and say I haven't worked out yet and I still been on my fatty diet cause I lose weight very easily and I love my size now. I have considered a round 2, not for more mass but possibly and smaller waist, arm lipo and to smooth out any dents. Everyone says it's a perfect bubble. I have never been questioned about it being real except by someone who has seen me naked and after saying " no I just had my stomach done, now all my weight goes to my ass... Lol. By two months u should pretty much be at full giggle status. I was always scared it was getting smaller, the measurements for my hips never changed. The people who do know are shocked at how natural it looks and feels. I had lumps in my side and lower back up until three months po, nothing visible but I had my Faja taken in an the crease left a few lumps on my right side. I worked them with self massage an they are gone now. I feel two pea sized knots at the top of my hip bone in my lower back. Still kinda burns a little . I figure I still have minor swelling. Stomach never got hard. Was always pretty soft. I am not sure if there is still swelling, no burning. Scar is excellent. Flat low and I have work several bikinis and it's never shown. The right side of my incision has puffiness in the corner where the drain was. Sometimes burns a little so I'm sure it will get flatter. I will post pictures before the night is over. Patients it's everything in this process, u will drive yourself crazy if u can't patiently wait for your results. I would like my privacy protected so I will take pics exclusively for RS showing all the different angles and scars tonight. I owe that to your girls for sharing so much with me. To the dolls who helped me through it all thank u for shedding a positive light on something so taboo. I would do it all over again ;)
