Hello dolls current, former and prospective!

I've been creeping around in the background of this site for a while, envying everyone who's been brave enough to get work done. After some thorough (I certainly hope it's as thorough as I think it is at least!) research, I landed on Dra. Medina for my surgeries. Currently planning to do a TT & BBL with lipo. I put my deposit in this afternoon and am planning to have my surgery done in August 16 to get myself into a shape I'm happier with and fit the health requirements over a reasonable amount of time.

To say I am anxious about this is a huge understatement! I am nervous for the normal reasons like having major surgery and being out of the country for it. Also for slightly less reasonable causes like wondering if I can successfully keep this all relatively quiet, will everyone know, will my family be disappointed in me. I have plenty of time to worry about all of that so for now I am trying to stay positive and excited that I finally took the first big step in changing my life and body for the better. I know it is a long road to happiness and I have been on it for a while already. It never ends, but it does get easier! Any pro tips or words of encouragement would be very much appreciated!

Congrats on your decision to improve your body - and committing to doing your part to get in shape and make the most of it. You've chosen an amazing sculptor for a doctor! I had very positive experience with her, and would be happy to answer any questions if you want to pm me. It's the unknown that gets us so worked up...being well informed helps us relax more :)

Congrats! She is sweet, great bedside manners, attentive, gives God thanks. I have e-mailed her and read her reviews. Personally, I plan to have a makeover in the D.R. in the next few months. I'll be following your journey. Thanks for sharing.

New date and pre surgery jitters

Well I have moved my date up to May 18th. It seems much more real now which is exciting and scary at the same time. I'm working on my general health and fitness to be in the best shape I can be before I leave.

While I am nervous, I still find myself determined to stick to the plan. It's something I've dreamed about as long as I can remember and it's just overwhelming to be finally doing it. I've been looking into some cushions to sleep on once I get back home, if you've used either of these please let me know.

Anyway, nose down and hard work in progress!

Hi there, finally figured out how to properly update the date. I'll be there for the second half of May, surgery is on the 17th. Are you in the same timeframe?
