Well for the simple fact that I change my date until April I haven't had much to really say on realself. I am in the process of losing weight right now. Mostly working in my arms, butt and thighs. I want my body to pretty much be complete when I get this tummy tuck done. I was curious if anyone knew that if I do sit up and ab exercises will my abs show up better after tummy tuck or would ab exercises be pointless until I get my surgery. I just became a fan of Buffy the body when I watch her Bodynomics workout videos. She has the body I want. I don't think I want my butt to be as big as hers but for the most part that what I want. :)

I'm flying out to Dr. Robles on 4/25! Maybe we can buddy up :-) I'm getting the same thing
January 27, 2014
Kool. Where are you located?
January 27, 2014
Also I was told that your surgery will have to be between Monday and Thursday which is why I chose the 28th. Because I wants to go on the 25th but that's a Friday. But that's just what I was told. Not sure if they didn't mention that to you or not.

I told Laura my job wouldn't let me off, so she said Friday or even Saturday! I'll check with her just to be sure. I'm in NY :-) where about are you?

Hey! Getting closer! Were you able to find out how similar to a C-section a tummy tuck feels?

Man o man how time is flying by already. this new year isn't wasting any time. I am so ready to pass these classes and go and take this trip of a lifetime. I am so excited it doesn't make sense how much i daydream about what I will look like in a few months. I have a boyfriend and i am a jealous person (which my jealousy mostly came after i had my second child and gained almost 60 pounds) I hate seeing girls with these perfect bodies and the [RS bleep]-stars with their humongous booties...lol g wiz. I know i wasn't too sure about having a BBL but if my boyfriend doesn't go (because my little girl is in first grade and i don't want her to miss two or more weeks of school) Im going to ask him to give me the extra money for me to get a BBL too. :) im sure he might want to get married after that, because Im sure he dont want to pay for my butt and i leave him....LOL...just kidding. But now i am considering doing that. I am going to start my iron next month because i want it to be a good as it can get so i can get the BBL, TT, Lipo on back, waist and maybe hips. i thought about getting it on my arms but i figured i can work my arms out instead of working out my butt and not getting the BBL. I also have the implanon birth control which is implanted in my upper left arm. so i don't want to have to take that out just so i can get lipo on my arms, then get pregnant and waste my money...LOL. that would be so pointless. Soooooooooo I can just do tricep and bicep exercises for the most part. Well i have to do some homework so i will Talk To You All Later :)

I think you should do the butt lift, if only to raise and and shape it more. I am getting it but no donk..lol I kept going back and forth on it. Since they are lipoing and there is plenty of fat why not. I am coming back in the summer for round 2 but I might not have enough then for what I want. And if I want to pump it up some more I can do that too. Good luck in your classes. It is good you are doing the iron now. I really should have started along time ago when I was even thinking about doing this...

The thing is those pics don't really show how big my butt really is and it seems to high. I just want a little added to the bottom to make it round. That cellulite is what kills the shape of my butt. I wonder if the fat transfer would get rid of some of the cellulite? What are you going to do when you go back for round 2? Wanted a breast lift but I haven't seen too many on realself that look really good without paying a high price. And Yea I figured I would start vitamins kind of early then that way I should be in the clear when the time comes :) and thanks!

My butt is wide not big. I want it rounded out some. I am going to learn how to say, no dunk, very little projection, just round it out some in spanish. I don't want to wake up with a huge butt. i want a thigh lift. with lipo...that is going to be round 2. I don't know about this.... I don't like where they place the scare. It seems it would be to hard to keep clean. Someone said with the tummy tuck it pulls the skin on the front of your thighs up some, it might be enough.
January 14, 2014
@Limicah1 I really think we have the same body issues. I havr cellulite issues in the middle of my but that affetcs the roundness off it. Also Imy butt sits on my back. I hate this look b/c it looks too high up top and my legs are to long for that. Im 5'8 so Imagine that... Im going to try to take pics to show my concern areas right b4 my sx..
January 14, 2014
Yea I wonder if the Lipo would round it out or if they can take some fat off the top to lower my butt or not. And I also thought about buying boy shorts underwear verses the regular underwear because I think that's what's putting the crease in my thighs and butt. But yea. I think I'm gonna go for it!
January 14, 2014
Yea dr robles speaks english, and Im sure when I go to my consultation she'll understand exactly what it is Im wanting. Then I will go to an ass ps if I need to afterwards. I personally dont feel she can give any good ass correction.If that makes sense..For now its step UNO!!!
January 12, 2014
hey boo stopping bye to show some love.... Were getting closer and closer...
January 14, 2014
Aww thanks. And yes we are ready to get errrr done!! Lol :)

Change of Plans

Lamicah1
I was recently going to try to do my surgery in March. But now i have decided to do my surgery in May. I have been trying to get into the LPN program and have since failed to get in not knowing that i was missing a Math. But its all good because i am not going to let that stop me so i am now going to just go and do CNA II until i get this Math out of the way. Well i was told that i cant' miss any days, which is fine. So i am going to do my surgery after the class is over on April 24. I wanted to give myself a little time to prepare before i did my surgery so i will be going on April 28th or May 5th. Im not quite sure yet. I want to do this surgery sooner but i prefer my education first, so i will have to put my surgery on hold for a couple of months. Well that is all, wish me luck with passing this class. And i will still keep you all updated with everything. :)

Time will fly by ... Good luck in your classes..

I surely hope so. and thank you :)

Cna class is a breeze hun. U will see what I mean. As far as lpn entrance exam math. It could be a bit challenging but only if u let it. If I remember right(unless things have changed) pre algebra and fractions is all u need for that particular exam as far as the math is concerned, with the exception of addition, subtraction,and multiplication. Correct me if im wrong, things may have change. But im telling u remain calm, study hard and u got this...
January 4, 2014
I have my CNA I and Phlebotomy so im praying the CNA II isnt too bad. and I wish I would've known sooner about my math because I could've had it already but the lady said I didnt need anything else....but o well hopefully I can get in next semester. thanks Ms. dukes217 :)
January 4, 2014
I never heard of cna 2 whats that hun......
January 4, 2014
they can do a little more than cna I. change dressing for wounds, flush IVs, do catheters, fingersticks, just doing alot of things assisting LPN that regular CNAs cant do.
January 4, 2014
where do u live hun? Ive never heard of that...
