Let the Countdown Begin. Miami, FL

June 2nd at 5:30 am I was anxiously awaiting my new body at Vanity Cosmetics. My intentions were to update this review with all positives just as I've seen previously and based my decisions accordingly. I'm assuming that several females begin their journey on realself and never post after because of complications or the recovery process. I'll rather hear the good, the bad and the indifferent. HOWEVER...I decided to give my review based on my experience. Vanity is not equipped for emergency situations!!!! In the event that you cannot regain consciousness....you need to go directly to the E.R!!! They will push you out the door just as they did me with an alcohol pad under your nose.The Doctors at Jackson Memorial stated that this occurs often and that they need their certifications revoked!! My entire stay in Miami was at the hospital. I lost so much blood during surgery and needed a blood transfusion. The doctors were hoping that my hemo levels would increase without the aid of the blood transfusion due to my age. To no avail, MY levels dropped to 9.0 after surgery to 6.2. I was very fatigue, couldn't walk let along wipe my own assets. I was so weak that I needed assistance to reposition my leg because I couldn't lift my legs with the beds sheets on top of them. No energy at all!!! My heart rate was 128 while I was at rest, my BP was elevated. Ive never had any issues with high blood pressure. My heart rate was the typical rate of someone jogging or speed walking. I received 13 bags of fluid including potassium and 2.5 bags before I left Vanity. One of vanity's surgery assistance requested that my sister go and get me some soup. They hustle everday but tge facility doesnt have a can of campbell's soup stored in tge event that a patient needs something to regain their strength. Whenever the nurses tried to get me up to stand, I would faint or as my sister stated...it seemed like I was having a mild seizure (a blank or glassy like stare while my knees buckled )... I received physical therapy while I was in the hospital at Jackson Memorial ..I never would have imagined walking one day and needing assistance to do everything that we normally take for granted. Ladies pls be careful! I'm anemic and I'm in perfectly good health. I prayed about this surgery and I'm so thankful that the good Lord didn't see fit to take me soooo soon.

I guess it's normal to get a little nervous before surgery. My mind is definitely set, I've prepared for this procedure physically and mentally. I only pray that the Lord covers his mind and hands, please guide him though this process. Ladies, I hope everyone is enjoying themselves, living for themselves and loving themselves flaws and all. Happy Healing!!

My garments are a size 40 and a 42. In the pic I'm wearing the size 42. I had no problem putting this garment on. I concerned whether I need a smaller size garment? I also purchased the lipo foam and ab board, hopefully it will make a difference. Im glad I finally decided to go through with this procedure because the bottom butt syndrome has taking it's turn for the worst.lol
