Hey Real Self Lovely's,

I joined RS after meeting an awesome young lady one day that had some work done by Dr. Yily De Los Santos in D.R. To me this young woman looked AMAZING and I told myself one day that'll be me. This was about 2 years ago and I'm still trying to figure things out. I must say, so many women on this site look stunning after their procedures but what scares me is the fact that I have lost a great deal of weight on my own (my highest was 260, today I weigh 197) and recently did the Gastric Sleeve (to fix the inner me first) so because of the added weight loss, my stomach is pretty loose and hangs (I probably have about 10 pounds of stomach). I have yet to see results from women whose bodies resemble mine. I want those same stunning results such as what I see on this site. I want to know that when I take that chance, venture out, and lay on the operating table that I will wake up with a perfectly flat "snatched" stomach and I'll have that Asa booty! (She's from Shahs Of Sunset ya'll) Lol :D

In terms of Dr's, I'm still researching and looking into options although I am leaning towards D.R. and Dr's Yily and Hector Cabral because I've seen so much of their work and I find a great majority of their stuff to be what I want. On the other hand, I have also read and heard some of the negative things as well and sometimes feel conflicted. Any ladies that can share some of their experiences with me would be highly appreciated! I look forward to reading from *You* :)

Xxoo....

Hellooooo....Im glad you made it. I am working on it. I am 5'1 currently 200lbs I have about 16-20 lbs to loose my highest 228lbs. I have been looking at Yily because I want the BL, TT, bbl all inclusive incentives, but I also I like Fatima Almonte who will not do all 3 at one time. I like both of their work and there is just a little price difference. The process is long and the weightloss is tough. Thank you for sharing.

I'm planning on going next summer after my 43 birthday in.April 2019 I love to hear real life stories I email them already they reply back in 48 hours which was awesome. I'm actually in Atlanta GA but I'm from Miami, Florida I'm excited and I'm glad you made your mind up and had your surgery. It's good to read reviews so others can get an truthful idea on the Dr, the staff etc...

Omg.. I'm so sorry I have never seen this post 'til now.. Thank you for posting! Girl, do I have a story to tell, however, everyone's journey is different (especially when it comes to surgeries and body structures... Even the healing process)... Since having plastic surgery already, two times, I have learned to slow down even more and be even more thorough within my searching and what it is that I'm truly looking for.. Once you're on that operating table, that's it, your life is pretty much on the line (literally).... I will send you another message, as I hope you found the best doctor for yourself and you are happy and safe! Thanks again mama!

Xxoo.....

I Need MORE!! Sometimes A BBL & Fat Transfer Doesn't Do The Trick (Unfortunately)

So, it's 2020 and I've done weight-loss surgery, went out to Dominican Republic and did my body with Dr. Yily (which included a BBL & Fat Transfer), then realized that I needed a round 2 and did that as well **Shout out to Dr. Kagan in Miami!! Yesss!!**... But for some reason it's still not enough and I now understand why.. Fat just moves around.. Cells move around.. They deposit and spread out over time.. With implants, they keep form & shape (I regret not looking into this sooner, however, EVERYTHING happens for a reason).. Of course I enjoy the prices of BBL's vs. Butt Implants, but at the end of the day, for what I will keep spending for separate rounds of BBL's, I might as well just invest in something that will last me a lot longer that I know I need for my body-type.. **Dr. Cortes, is definitely the doctor that I am shifting towards (I'm EXTREMELY in love with his work) I hope to be a patient of his sometime in the near future (hopefully in about a year or so).** If any of you gorgeous Goddesses have any comments or feedback on this procedure, doctor, or best places where to stay out there in Texas please let me know!

Thanks and Blessings!!

Xxoo..
