WORTH IT$5,200

Ive officially chosen Dr. Robles for my TT/lipo. Robles is in Santo Domingo. I will be updating weekly as my surgery will this March. Im super excited. I had my breast done in NY in 2005. I have started to buy my necessities

1. 3 summer dresses
2. cotton tank tops
3. wipes (both body and feminine)
4. 100% cotton underwear
5. flip flops and sneakers (already have)
6. wash cloths
7. pads
8. Toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, tooth brush n paste, deodorant, brush, lotion, chap stick)
9. Hand sanitizer
10. pack of white tshirts (just for comfort)

left to buy

incentive spirometer
anti embolism thigh high socks
anti bacterial soap
robe
Mosqueta rose oil
draw string pants

Ive already started taking my vitamins, B-complex, folic acid, vitamin c, and iron.

Ive been following a lot of other journeys on Realself and thought I should share my story as well. I hope its helpful :0)

A little about me: Ive always been a thin girl. But after my third child I just feel like my stomach is ever going to look the same.. Ive done the Insanity work out before after my second child, and loved my results. I tried it again after my last child and didnt get any where close to where I would like to be. I only weigh 133 lbs and Im slim in every other part of my body except my belly.. It just doesnt feel right to me.. My sisters think Im crazy for wanting work done but at the end of the day its ME that needs to be happy.. My husband is very supportive of my decision to have surgery. He has lots of family in Santo Domingo so he doesnt have a problem with me traveling so far. So my journey begins here :0)

Im waiting for the status of my passport and I'll be on my way :0)

Ok so I picked up a few things. I don't have time to order and start taking the VitaMedica recovery program so I picked up the part that is important for after surgery and healing. I posted a pic.. The arnica is sublingual and cost $13.99, the Bromelain was like $9. And the mosqueta rose oil was $10. The rose oil is much smaller than I thought :0(. But hey I need it..
I'm going this weekend to pick up a light weight luggage... Yei. Almost done...

U have to stay for at least 10days. And you will see the doctor a few times. The driver at the recovery house takes you back and forth from the clinic to see the doctor ..

Does anyone know if getting waxed is a good idea before I leave?? I really don't want to have to deal with shaving while over there. Thanx :0)
