WORTH IT$7,500
I decided on Dr. Cardinals because she sounds very credible and had many great reviews. So far everyone has been very nice. I scheduled my surgery for June 11th so I could lose 40 more pounds and get my BMI to 30. I'm 5'7 and weigh 226. I have 26 more pounds to go. It'll also give me more time to save. Any advice for someone who is 3 months pre-op??

My advice is to know that time is going to go A lOT faster than you think! Three months will be over before you know it. If you haven't already, start researching everything you want/need to know about your procedure as well as post op info. Knowing all I can possibly know has helped me to feel less nervous. I will be at beauty care in the hands of Dr. Cardenas in exactly 2 weeks for my tt. I can't belive it!! Good luck on your journey!!

I agree!! It's really hard! I had hoped to lose 10lbs but I've only lost 5 :/
You can do it if you stay focused. I like pizza too much lol

Why oh why??
I'm trying hard to lose weight before this surgery. I feel like I'm starving myself and nothing is coming off. I need suggestions. Thinking of trying IdealShake.

Best of luck girly! Don't forget to ask them to take pics of you in the surgery room so you can have pics by the time you get to the recovery room ;-) can't wait to see!

It was nice meeting you and your honey hope you start feeling better soon! Hugs*
Congrats on your weight loss, Mel! As far as preparation at 3 months, we have a BBL forum with lots of information such as: a surgical calendar, travel buddies, pre-op information, etc. You can find a lot of support in there from the other girls. We also have a good amount of BBL Guides to help with preparation.
Good luck and please keep us updated! :)
