Not sure on what size to get

Delgago1love, you're not having surgery until the end of the month right? I would try to guess your size after surgery or wait until after your surgery to order. If in doubt, order a size up based on your measurements. You can always order a smaller one as the swelling goes down. You will not like the garment Dr. Castor gives you but you can't go without it.

I started cardio and upper body weights at 3 weeks. It felt good to get back in the gym. I do 10 sets of 50 squats and 100-150 crunches a few times a week. I wish I could do more but my schedule is crazy right now. Squats will swell your booty and add nice firmness to your thighs. Castor dolls are awesome! I'm glad we're growing in numbers!

Did you choose the vedette based on waist or hips? I been having such issues . For me the waist and hips fall under different sizes. I'm thinking it's the same for you ?

Waist. It's stretchy on the hip area. This one works for me. It's my favorite!

Velashape 3

This pic was taken a few days after ny third treatment. I've gained 6 pounds in the last 2 weeks. I have since stopped taking an HGH injection because of a severe allergic reaction to the meds. It also caused swelling/weight gain. I'll take another picture after I get back down to 135 pounds.

You look really nice! Did dr castor recommended Velashape? How u like the results so far?
M
February 28, 2017
Thank you! He did not, I did my own research and felt that this would work on the hard areas on my abdomen. The first treatment was a little uncomfortable because I had so much of my abdomen that needed to be softened and worked. The second treatment wasn't uncomfortable the least bit. It's softened all the areas and as soon as I lose this weight that I gained with the meds I took comma I'm sure I will love it. I noticed a good result immediately after. I was first looking into Endermologie for the softening of my abdomen but decided on velashape 3 instead because it combines for different Technologies.
The VelaShape 3 Product line is the only non-invasive body shaping product to combine four different technologies including IR (infrared), Bi-Polar RF (radio-frequency) and mechanical tissue manipulation using pulsed vacuum and massage rollers.

Hello! Where did you go for the Velashape 3?

March 11, 2017
I love your results ! Which waist cinched u recommend, I have been stuck at 30.5 in in my waist is not getting smaller! Which fajas and clinchers you liked best? I bought 2 garments from Amazon but they don't fit right ! Too tight in the butt! I feel that I need to do something drastic for the waist to get smaller ... I'm 2 weeks post op. Any advise will help! Thank you girl!

Girl, you look fabulous and your results will only get better. I'll upload a picture of the clincher and faja I used. I absolutely loved how they sculpted me. Get them on Amazon. RS will not allow links so I'll post a picture right now.

Just uploaded the pictures, search by company name, use the proper sizing. Don't get discouraged if you get the size eying the first time, order the next size up and keep the smaller one, eventually, you'll fit in it! :)

Hey girl your shape looks great! I'm also 20 lbs xtra before my surgery (2/24/17) with Dr. Castor how do you like the waist/ butt ratio after the surgery? Did your waist got small ? I'm getting excited and nervous any advise helps! Thanks,
M
February 13, 2017
Thanks! Yes, I lost about 3 inches in my waist! It really depends on how my eating goes, some days are better than others. You really have to stay away from salt and processed foods. My husband cannot keep his hands off of me. lol. We are both very happy with the results. Tell him you want a bubble butt, I had about 1100 cc's in each side. I wish it was just a little bigger but I'll let squats handle the rest. :)
