Hi Loves, I'm new to the boards but not to the site. I've been body-stalking ya'll for months lol, doing research and considering my decision. I still haven't come to the finalization process but I have narrowed the field between Dr. Cardenas, Dr. Campos and Dr. Yily. Drs. Cardenas and Yily were on point with their response time, information and specific procedure(s) that would benefit MY body. Dr. Campos? Real talk? I go to sleep dreaming of a snatched up hourglass waist and wake up cursing at that damn Angie. I've been sitting here reading ya'll posts tearing her up, rue-ing the day you ever had to deal with her and giggling. And now guess what, it's my turn so all that tee hee heeing serves my ass right. I sent a request for a quote going on 2 weeks ago and *crickets* Really, bish? (tm Kenya Moore) Um, raise your hand if you've ever had to fight to give away your money? Yeah, that's what I thought. Me neither. Anyway I wasn't really interested in a BBL until I started looking around at some of you gumdrops and I'd think hold up, THAT background cost her an extra $600 and some more laying around which she was gonna do anyway? Um, sold to the lady with the square biz behind. The actual procedures I'm interested in are a breast lift, tummy tuck or lipo, not sure which and of course the waist contouring. I didn't know if it was/is safe to do three procedures at once and I'm honestly not certain a surgeon is the most objective person to get that answer from. So if any of you have had 3 or more areas yanked, pulled, cut or hoisted at the same time, please don't hesitate to hit me up. Ideally I want to do this in one shot, because I'm no spring chicken *cough* 46 *cough* and I can almost guarantee that if the recovery for slicing and dicing things 1 and 2 is as painful as some of you have described, I will not return to yank up things 3 and 4. Sorry, I ramble when I'm nervous and I haven't even really gotten it kicked off yet. I just want to kick down the door and introduce myself, wave to all you dolls and say thank you for how much insight, help and especially photos you've provided in and along your own journeys, believe me, they've been invaluable. Be back when I can. -bass. ;)

Holler at me squad, I need your help
So, I booked my date with Dr. Campos. Now I'm turning my attention to recovery centers. The other day I saw a youtube made by a Club Med doll and when she panned around to her room there was a GANG of beds in there. Like I'm not kidding I counted at least 6 or 7 beds in one room. I know misery loves company and all that but the idea of recuperating in the same room as 6 other girls, group funk, sweat, chatter and pain? Er. Mah. Gerd. I get mad as a damn hornet if I'm woken up when I'm not in pain so 6 other dolls in the same room will wreck my last guu't nerve in advance. Heard nothing but raves about club med and had my heart set until I saw that so talk to me ya'll. Because if the layout is really as crazy as it looked in that video? ::picksupbullhorn:: hayle no, B won't go!

Lol!!! I'm up reading your posts you make me laugh. 6 beds? That's crazy. Doesn't sound sanitary to me. If I'm paying I want my own bed & bathroom haha

January 20, 2015
Lol! Girl! the beds are individual. I was just shocked to see so many in one room. I'd seen a picture of that room on their website before but that patient video was like damn did I just Catfish'd? lol! I think the recovery houses are actual homes though, so I haven't come across any with their own bathrooms. How's your where to stay decision coming? You pick a place yet?

January 20, 2015
I'm just gonna go with beauty care because it's closer to the boarder and to the hospital where campos office is. I herd med care is 30 min away



April 23, 2015
Jazzy did you go yet? I'm asking because if you're choosing based on distance, while I was there I found out that beauty care is 20 minutes away. Club Med is 25 minutes from Campos, they're just in 2 different directions. Good luck babe!

January 20, 2015
This damn post eating site, I swear. The rest of that was supposed to say ok girl I'll see you on the other side ;)
January 26, 2015
LOL about the 6 beds. I am going to stay at Club Med because I'd rather recover to the sounds of the ocean and feel like it's some what of a vacay.

January 26, 2015
Girl I hear that! I hope you do get to make the best of that beach. Hell, I'll sleep out there if ya'll get too rowdy :)

Oh dude. Am I really having surgery in 9 weeks? Crapperjacks. What have I done? {{bounces up an down}} here's what, here's what!! Sent the deposit a few weeks back, that thou turned this from a want to an investment. No turning back now lol. Flights booked. Used airline miles be in first class on the way back, because I've been paying attention to ya'lls blogs. I probably do not want to get somebody together a couple weeks after being cut open. No need to mess with my jou-jou. Um, let's see what else? Bit by bit, I've been buying supplies on amazon, ebay anyplace ya'll said to look really. I'll upload a pic of my haul the next RS is acting like it doesn't wanna eat up posts. One thing I'd highly recommend if you've considered it, is a full body pillow. I got a Leacho Back and Belly pillow from Bed Bath & Beyond and Er. Mah. Gerd. This thing. I don't know how I've ever slept without it. My 15 year old laid down on it by accident and I almost lost permanent custody of it. If you're having more than one body part worked on, Google it. Been monitoring my weight. I should put that in airquotes. In my case monitoring means doing the least amount of work possible to make sure I get neither any fatter or... I was about to say or thinner, but who am I kidding, that just doesn't happen to me by accident. lol. Okay. Enough bending your ears. Gotta go look for an automatic fish feeder. Bye for now dolls.

9 weeks girl - well time's running and either you're bouncing because you're excited like h... or you do it cause you panic. For me it's both switching every day grl! Good luck with the ....fish feeder !"?

January 26, 2015
Guuurl. Tigger energy. Don't know if it's excitement or fear or both, but I gotta stay bouncing, because if I stop to mull it over... lol. LOL, I'll be gone from home for 3 weeks, if I come back and that betta is floating on top of the bowl..? Well. Let's just say my kid won't love it. ;)
How you feeling these days? Did you get your labs and stuff?

January 27, 2015
Oh yes killed a couple of them through life - not on purpose of course ;) Hubby's hobby not mine *lol* Well I do feel good these days - really good in fact. The last week It's like I'm more balanced than ever. think it's bczs everything is more realistic - no dream - no more :) Now I dream about changing my wardrobe and if I'll be able to find some hot jeans that will fit a bigbootey....yaaazzz!! What about you? Didn't get my lab yet - and really don't know how that works hear in Denmark and Nancy hasn't said anything yet. When did you get yours? I take some vitamins (C + Multi) and 25 mg iron - I'll wait with the big shot (325 mg) csz it's hard to the stomach (and liver). Wrote about it on my profile. **

January 27, 2015
I'm giggling about the fish lol! {{chanting}} bigbootey jeans!! bigbootey jeans!! I love it. Mange tak girl! I should mention that the pill I take is 325 mg of ferrous sulfate, the equivalent of a 65 mg iron tab. I knew I would mess up once I started talking numbers lol. Thankfully I've been lucky, no stomach upset so far. I won't be within 30 days of my sx date until after 2/25 so no labs for me for a while. Check with Nancy hunny, Salama (or Vanity?) may do their own bloodwork if you get there in enough time for results to be processed. Maybe you don't have to bother with getting them done at home if you don't wanna.

January 29, 2015
Oh this grl messing up too - could have told myself that 325 mg is too much *lol* No wonder the pharmacist gave me this weird look .....hmm!! well now it makes sense and thank you for the tip - I'll e-mai Nancy at once - it'll be easier for me and at the same time I don't have to involve my doctor too much - I know what she's going to say about this if you know what i mean ;) Big applause for your danish - I'm impressed hun!

January 29, 2015
Hee!!! We'll get each other together and work it out some kinda way! lol. Lemme know what she says. If no luck with her, there's a walk in lab and plenty of others like it near him, you'd just need Nancy to get him to write you a letter requesting your tests.

Girl I can't take any credit at ALL for the Danish lol. My favorite aunt has lived in Scandinavia for the past 40 years (stockholm) but *curstey* ;)

January 30, 2015
I love Stockholm :) Just heard from Nancy - I have to have the lab work done in DK as they need them 4 weeks pre op. As she said "just start scheduling with the lab...." only thing .....she didn't say what kind of test *lol* Think the lab would like to know. Thank u for the link - might come in hand anyway .)

Are you going to start taking any supplements? My surgery is in a few more weeks with Campos and I have no clue what I should be doing. I might go get some iron pills and arnica pills and just start taking them. It seems like that's what a lot of people on this site have been doing, lol.

January 26, 2015
Hey sweetness, I saw that you're up soon! How you feeling, excited, are we nailbiting or cheerleading? lol. Yes ma'am, I'm going to get the tub of pre/post op packs from make me heal. They contain arnica and some other anti swelling/anti bruising stuff and they're premeasured and premarked - less I have to remember the better lol. I dunno what my hemoglobin levels are so I'm already take a 325 mg iron tab every day. Ok lovie if you decide to start taking something just make sure it's none of the stuff in the list on Angie's instructions - we're supposed to stop those, what? a month in advance....?
January 26, 2015
Hi doll! I am excited and then I get cold feet, lol. I have two babies under two that I will be leaving back home so I also get emotional because I will miss them and then feel guilty. However, a happy mom means happy kids and happy hubby. Now that I am done having kids I need to do something for me. Thank you for reminding me about Angie's list...I looked at it after I read your comment. I'm actually still taking a lot of stuff on that list like diet pills, eating mushrooms, etc...YIKES! So thank you for reminding me to take a look at it! Also, good thing you told me about makemeheal.com it makes life much easier. I will order those supplements today so I can start taking them 2 weeks before surgery! Good luck with your surgery and keep us posted! :-)

Every word of ^ this! Lol that list. Girl, no prob, I just came across it today myself by accident talking bout maybe I should stop a second and look this over. Thank you hunny. I got your date marked, I'll be cyber bothering you the next day!

What made you decide on dr campos from dr cardenas? I want dr. Cardenas but she's expensive dr. Campos is good too and right now he's the best bet for me financially. Aye any guidance you can give me will be appreciated

February 18, 2015
Hi love. Dr. Cardenas is a sweetheart but to answer your question, I'd like to have a breast lift, tt and bbl done in one procedure and she didn't feel comfortable doing all 3 at once (on me anyway). Which I completely respect her for but from a practicality, recovery, expense and timing standpoint I need to get everything that needs fixing out of the way at one time lol. That's the practical answer, the whisper in ya ear answer is I'm also a bit of a punkass - I simply will not endure certain types more than once, don't care what the reward is. Ask my ONLY child lol. Thing 3 is, the more I read about him, the more I came across descriptions of Campos as the hourglass man. That spoke to me because I'm fixing everything basically, so I need a surgeon who takes into a woman's entire body/shape into consideration, even if he's only operating on one part. I do ramble, sorry lovie. Hope that helped though!
