BTW, I forgot to mention about my sister. Girls! What a transformation! She looks like a complete different person. Even her colleagues at her worked are amazed of her results. My sister is sooo loving her butt and small waste and no side, back or bra rolls. However, she is now thinking of getting a tummy tuck done because her big butt now matches her stomach. So I guess we'll see how that goes. I'll keep you posted. I will try to see if I can post a pic of her too.

Newme missed you girl. It was nice hearing from you... blessings to your family..
January 27, 2013
Mh, thx. I'm glad to be back as I promised to keep everyone posted until I turn six months. The family is doing great and how r things with u?
January 27, 2013
Things are great 3 month post op from my tummy tuck. Now looking for my bbl surgeon which I dont know who to choose..yet. thanks for the update
January 27, 2013
Oh wow, nice :-) are u happy with ur results. Can't seem to remember but did u get it done with Dr Robles? BBL , so do u have a few doctors in mind?
January 28, 2013
No I did it with a doctor here in new york whos name is doctor tehrani. And im loving my results now my bbl I might look to it with him as well.
January 28, 2013
I see, is he a dr in the city or did u go to the New York eye and ear. Just in case, you don't know. I know a few people who have had work done at the New York eye and ear for cheap as they are plastic surgeons doing their fellow ship. Just an FYI
January 28, 2013
Thanks newme just I know but some comfortable with him that Im attach to him.. lol he is from new york and I believe he did a great job with a tummy tuck im now almost flat at 14 weeks scar looks very thin and barely noticeable. So im happy I might go with him for my bbl tooo.
January 28, 2013
Mh, that's good :-) what matters is that your happy. So how much did he charge u for your tummy ? Do you know how much he's charging for the BL? It would be great to let us know this way others who read this can compare prices and decides what's best for them. Thx for sharing :-)
January 28, 2013
For my tt is was $12000 and bbl he gave a discount so it ended up being $8790
January 28, 2013
Mh, wow! Wow! Omg! That's a wholeee lot of money. Bless you for being able to afford that. Thanks although for sharing. This can help someone know if they rather have their procedure done here and keep closer to home but at a higher price or travel to a different country that it may be a first time to but at a way less price.
January 28, 2013
Yia its very expensive but definitely worth it. I dont trust any one with my children therefor I cant travel far for long periods of time.. the only person I trust is my mom and she works im stay at home of two lil ones a toddler and a one year old.
January 28, 2013
I hear ya Mh, I'm happy that your happy with the new u. That's what matters the most, plus u have to do what's best for your family.
January 27, 2013
Thanks for your update story. I will be seeing Dra Robles in July. I am happy the you are healing well. Keep healing
January 27, 2013
Yolanda, thx. Wow July that's around the corner n by the time u realize its here. May I ask what u r getting done?
January 28, 2013
Hi Newme35 I am getting a tummy tuck ,lipo on my waist and back (Hate Handles)and recycling my fat to my butt. I want a bbl. Can you let me know if you went up a pant size after your bbl. I live in MA, but I clothes shop in the Bronx. I use a 9/10 for pants. I want to buy clothes for after my bbl for work.
January 28, 2013
Yolanda, to be honest at first it's going to look huge but that's because it's swollen. Also everybody's body handles things differently, in the sense that some people's body will retain all the transfer and others some and others none. For me, I say I retained some but in the areas I wanted which was the top portion of the cheeks to give it that donkey booty look. So what I'm saying is that at first, your clothes may not fit but that's due to the swelling so I suggest not to go buying lots of pants until you are about three months post op. I know cuz as a dummy I bought like 5 pants at New York and Company when I was about three or four weeks post op and now the pants fit so huge from my waste but not as tight on my butt. Hope this helps. BTW, I suggest to take to DR a loose comfortable shirt and loose sweat pants for your return home after surgery because if you take tight fitting pants or shorts , they may not fit cuz your going to be swollen like crazy and if you go home with the drain in , the sweat pants will allow you space to hide the drain on your flight back home.
January 28, 2013
Hi Newme35, I bought some lose summer dress and some lose rompers. I wanted to buy some new clothing for work, but I will wait then. Keep healing and update your journey.
January 29, 2013
Yolanda, thx. I know it's exciting to try to get new clothes on your new body but I say if you want that OMG! Jumping up and down feeling then wait a little , at least until your two 1/2 months or better 3 months. Loose summer dress is the way to go especially at the recovery house cuz it will be easier to move around with especially when you ho to the bathroom, as you will eventually learn how to pee properly being that the garment has a crotch whole . Good luck and let me know how your surgery turns out.
January 30, 2013
Hi Newme35, I bought 5 two sizes to big tank dresses for $7.00 each at Walmart today. I will recovering at our house in the DR with my mom. My great mother will buy me the garments at the Dr's office. I dont want to order the wrong size. When I received my email. I was told 1000 peso for a garment. I think she is buying me 2 garments. Keep updating.
January 30, 2013
Well I checked my email. The garments are $100 dollars each not $1000 peso.
January 30, 2013
Yolanda, well it's nice that u will be able to recover at your house in DR, but just a little information that is good to share. Being that you will be recovering at your house , then your mom will need to be the one to drain ur back , which is somewhat nasty to do because the first few days it will be bloody looking and smells bad too. Perhaps after your surgery is done and when you see the doctor for your first follow up , she can teach your mom the process.

Ladiebug, thx. I'm happy that I had some downtime to update my post.
January 28, 2013
newme35, I am glad you posted an update. I saw someone comment on another post, that you have fell off the face of the earth...implying you were not a real patient of Robles. I do understand why she may have thought that. There are many that make positive post about Doctors and then disappear. In your case, you were so detailed weeks before and after your surgery. You also had before and afters, so I knew it was the real deal.
January 28, 2013
Excited4change, I can understand y they would think that , I too may have thought the same. Unfortunately after my surgery so much crap was going on from Hurricane Sandy and my roof blowing off, to going back to work and dealing with the swelling or my butt hurting, to then having so much work backed up to then all three holidays and now selling the house . All that and six kids two dogs a husband and a daily two hour commute to and from work. So I apologize but I will do the best I can to keep everyone posted until I hit my six month mark. Ah, who knows maybe longer depending if I decide to go back to tweak some stuff. So we'll see.

I am SO happy you posted because I love love love you results! I'm also a mother of six and I'm depressed at the way my body suffered, I'm scheduled for Dr Robles in just 28 more days n my only fear is that I'm too heavy for any dramatic results and losing weight isn't so easy when the smoking stopped because I want to eat more so I'm fighting two evils...i always wondered where u got to and am SO pleased that you are still having good results, it gives me hope :)
January 28, 2013
Luvminieto, may I ask how tall u r and how much u weigh? I ask cuz my sister who went with me for procedure, she is short like 4.8 and when she was able to get the money to go with me for her procedure she too didn't have time to loose weight. However she truly had realistic expectations so all she wanted was to have a smaller waist , no rolls and a Big butt. To be honest , it is such an amazing transformation, cuz her body looks way different than it did before. It even motivated her to continue eating healthy. So I say if your going for lipo , that will definitely give you amazing results. For me before surgery I weighed 148 lbs and after three months being post op, I now weigh 134 and I am a size 8 but that's cuz my ass is big so tge pants are nice tight and perfect but the pants waist fits big cuz I have a tiny waist. So I think even if u are big at least u will no longer have rolls, have a flat belly and bigger butt or boobies (since I don't know what procedures your going for) but at least u will look wonderful. After that is done, you will have enough time to eat healthy and continue loosening the weight as your swelling goes away.

NewMe, First of all...THAT was so helpful! I'm tall (5'8) and weigh 215 (You can look on my profile, I have pics posted) I've always stayed in between 170-180 which to be honest, is a great weight for me (because I'm tall) anything under that makes me look like a crack head because my face gets SUPER skinny, an ideal pant size for me is a size 12 and I've crept my way up to a 16 now :( but as you see, my expectations are pretty realistic, and I have no desire to be a size 4 or 5 because I would look HORRIBLE (been there done that in my younger years) I would love to see your sisters results if she doesn't mind sharing... it makes me SO excited when I see good results, I get so excited like its happening to ME! :) and that's what I love about this site...it's like a "sisterhood" and nobody will judge you! I will be having a TT, Fat Transfer , lipo in the back and POSSIBLY (Dr Robles will review and determine when she sees me) lipo on the thighs.... What are your thoughts? ;)
January 28, 2013
Luv, then I think that the way u r thinking will definitely help u see the biggest difference ever of your life. I'm going to try to post pics today and see if I can put my sisters also. Definitely the TT with the lipo is going to make a dramatic difference and change. My sister only had lipo and butt transfer becuz it was all she could afford but she now wishes to get a tummy tuck again cuz now that her butt is big it's the same size as her stomach so she has a small waist and big butt but also a big stomach do it looks a little funny either way she turns.

UPDATED FROM NewMe35
3 months post

Hello! Hello! My fellow RS friends. I know! It's...

NewMe35
Hello! Hello! My fellow RS friends. I know! It's been a long time. But I am alive and very well. So much has happened since my last post. So bare with my as I will try to give as much details. So I am now about 3 1/2 months post op. I am feeling sooo good and loving my results. Ok, so when I last posted in November I was having issues with fluid build up on the bottom of my tummy but I was going to the spa that Dr Walkiris recommended me to for aspiration, stich removal and massages. Well as I said in my last post , Dr Angela at the spa told me that with one more fluid aspiration I should be good and sh was right. I went back to see her and she aspirated me for the last time which was also the last time I had the massage done. I found that the massages did help get rid of the hard spots from the lipo but I only had about 5 massages done. Once I saw that I didnt have anymore hard spots, I stopped going. The best thing I was able to get from the spa is the faja. They sell a faja called " Ponte Bella" and I luv how it makes my body look. I was wearing the faja 24/7 and only taking it off for showering. But just about two weeks ago I stopped wearing it to sleep and on weekends. Other than that I wear it Monday thru Friday. So its been about two weeks now since I haven't gotten the bad itches and blotchy redness on my body especially when I use to shower. My back sometimes gets swollen but not all the time. However my back still has a slight numbness and slight burning feeling but only when I scratch my back or lay on my back. I am very happy with my tummy tuck. My scar is lightening up on the right side and middle section but my left side is still a bit dark but from having experienced with a previous tummy tuck, I know that once I turn a year it will be super light. The one thing I love from this tummy tuck compared to my first one many years ago is that I don't have any dog ears. With my first TT I had dog ears but I was okay with it except when I would wear pantys or pants they would stick out a bit as if it was a tiny roll. I am super happy with my new TT results because I wasn't able to get a full TT as I didn't have enough skin to pull but Dr W did a good job making it look natural and flat. As for the lipo, all I can say is wow!!! I can't believe how much it can change ones body. I no longer have back and bra rolls and I have a tiny waste. Now for the booty, I am very happy with my results. Now I had a big butt before the transfer but what I wanted was for it to look fuller and perky cuz it looked big but like an old ladies butt, especially under neath my butt I use to have what they call butt rolls. Which is fatfrom weight gain that gets stuck under your butt cheeks even when you loose weight it would stay stuck and it made it look as if I had to cheeks or two curves. I definately like how my butt now looks but I feel that not enough fat was removed under my cheeks. I love the top volume of my butt and I love that my cheeks now have that nice round curve on the bottom but I still hate that I have little tiny butt rolls. My right leg has almost none but my left leg still has a small roll. This has always been that one thing that I hated abou my body. So I would like to take care of that area to eliminate the remaing little roll. But overall I lovvvee my botty cuz it looks like a young girls butt and coming from a mom of six this has made my self confidence rise. My boobies now feel and look so natural. They are not hard at all and the swelling has gone done. I love the way they look now. Perky and full. They no longer look saggy like the national geographic type and they are definitely bigger in size because I use to be a small B and I am now C. Im just not sure if it's a small or full C. Now don't get me wrong, I love my new girls but I do regret not going with 375cc's. I was scared of going to large and them looking fake so I went with 350cc. Now I am contimplating if I should go back for a larger size. I would like to be a bit bigger than what they are now. So for you ladies going soon for breast implants, I would say don't be scared and go with your gut and also keep in mind that once the swelling goes down which is about three weeks, you will notice that they will go down in size. I am now going to buy this faja from Salome but its not a full body it's a capri, because I plan to keep my butt and continue having it look good. So faja Salome online has a capri called Levantacola since summer is around the corner and theres now way I will be wearing a full body faja so this capri faja will help me maintain my butt just as I do with my new boobs by wearing the right support bra to keep them perky. By the way, I want to say thank you to those who have kept in touch with me while I have not posted in a long time. I want to apologize for not posting as it got a bit crazy for me when I returned back to work because I had so much work to catch up and behind. Then december came and it is the busiest time of the year as people are trying to meach sales goals before the year ends so it was sooo busy. Then came chritmas and with 6 kids it's not easy to buy gifts in one shot and definitely not easy to hide them. Then New Years came and we decided to put the house up for sale and we have been busy with painting fixing decluttering and packing, so just now I finally had down time. I am writting to you guys while my three babies are napping. I will try to post picks toight and I will continue todo my best to post often until I turn six months, just as I promised.

Hi Ladies, so I finally made it thru week 1 at...

NewMe35
Hi Ladies, so I finally made it thru week 1 at work besides dealing with my house problems due to the storm. Where should I start... Oh yes, the itch and numbness in my back. So I think everyone seems to have different symptoms after having lipo. My sister is doingg great with no pain or numbness in her back. Yet for me about two weeks ago I had the most intense itch all over my body, especially after I showered. To the point that I had red blotchiness all over. So what I found that helped me with this was to take benedryl at night along with my arnica and jergens ultra healing lotion. My butt has finally stopped from flaking but I guess it was due to the aquphor ointment that I was applying. K so this week was my first week back to work and on the first day, everyone was staring at me. My men colleagues kept asking if I had lost weight so I would just reply by saying " I dont think so, why?" But the woman are more smarter so they try to ask in a sneaky way, like " girl u look so good , what did u do while u were out?" I just asked stupid and say " nothing, why?" But two of the ladies who I trust knew about my procedure before leaving and they are so blown out of ttheir mind how good I look. Now one of the girls is planning to get in contact with Raquel for possibly getting surgery in March 2013. She loves my look and would like the same, plus I told her how happy I was to make the decision and how well they take care of you at the recovery house. Being that I have a desk job, I found myself having to go to the bathroom or kitchen a few times because my butt would feel sore after sitting on it for more than two hours straight. But the worst experience for me is that by the time end of day gets near, my back begins to swell so bad and it ffeels like I'm going to pop out of my garment like the Hulk. The other thing to is that because I have a tighter garment, it begins to irritate my body by the time I am driving back home (mind u its a two hour drive). Oh! Oh 1 So this past wednesday was my appointment at Angels Spa for my massage and appointment with Dr Angela. This time which was my second session the massage was done with a vibrating ultrasound machine and OMG!!! It freakin hurt me, especially when the apply preasure to the areas that have spots of hardness, which helps break up the fat and smooth out your skin and reduce swelling. For me this is painful since my waist had a lot of lipo done so I am very sore, like abruising feeling. But I maintained strong and just tried to deal with it. Then I saw Dr Angela and she asperated again the fluid I had in the bottom of my tummy, it hurts since I have feeling in my entire stomach. My bottom belly was swollen but when she asperated the fluid it immediately became flat. She says that with one more session I should bve good and that its normal when one has lipo and tummy tuck, plus the other reason for the swelling is because the garment that I bought from her last time in a large is too loose now as I have lost a lot of swelling. So even though it cost me money, I had to buy another one in a medium and now I am super tight, but I love this garment cuz it gives a good lift to the butt. Oh and she also removed a few of my stiches that didnt disolve because she said that if it does not get removed then it can cause the incisions to become effected. I wasnt so sure about it so as I waited for Dr Angela, I took advantage to email Dr Drobles to see if this was ok and she told me yes, to allow her to remove them becuz it should have desolved by now and for me to make sure to apply neosporin for one week and then continue putting the mosqueta rose oil. So Dr Angela removed one stich from under my butt cheek where the fat was transferred to, then she took the stiches fom each of the side of my breast where the lift was done, one from the inscision of my back on the top right and the other from the middle. What a relief now because I no longer feel itchy from the stiches. This session again cost me a bit of money but im okay with that so that the swelling can stop. The other thing Dr Angela told me to buy is a electric heat pad being that I cant afford to go twice a week, to help reduce the swelling on my back and tummy. Im going today to walmart to get one so lets see how that goes. After this update I will post pics of me in my work clothes and I tried my best to take pics of my booty myself. Oh, so far my boobs are begining to feel natural. My left boob no longer hurts when touched but my right boob still is sensitive to the touch. As for my booty, it still hasnt gone down and Im hoping that it dosnt as I now have learned to love my big booty. At first I felt embarressed of the size, becuz Im conservative butt now I love it and have no problem showing it off. So my tip of the day once your surgery is done and as your healing, if u get the real bad itches, keep in mind to try benedryl. Talk to you soon again. I almost forgot to tell you that I weighed myself at work this Monday and I now weigh 139, which before surgery I was 147. So the hard part for me will be to maintain this weight because I dont want to loose anymore cuz I luv my booty and I dont want to gain weight becuz I luv my curves and I dont want to ever have rolls on my back or waist. So this will be a huge challenge for me.

you are looking amazing!! ur butt, stomach, and boobs all look so good!! What kind of breast implants did you get. I was thinking of getting that too but I want to make sure that i can get something that will look and feel natural. My date is in mid December. I can't wait! You are making me so excited.
November 12, 2012
Laury thx u, I'm so happy as u will be once u get ur surgery. I had silicone implants 350 cc and I recently realized that she did a tiny lift to the noobs from the stiches on the sides of each boob which gave me that perky look, I luv my girls and people don't realize that their fake unless they know me really well.
