  1. Hi! My credit is by far good...I applied for CareCredit and had to ask for increments everyday for 3 days until I was approved for the amount I needed which was 7k....my motto is YOLO....if u get a loan to make u feel happier with urself Do It!! The ppl who only have negative things to say need to b ignored. As long as ur able to repay the loan, its nobody's business Good luck getting financed!
  2. Wow! You sure do have a lot going on all at once...wheew...i hope everything resolves or gets better for u and ur kids.
  3. Hi, so im having an abdominoplasty & liposuction on the hip rolls, flanks and upper back this coming Thursday. Are there any things that I perhaps need to be aware of or take into consideration? All comments and advice greatly welcomed and appreciated. Thanx
  4. I am a lil over 1 yr post sleeve. Im really interested in getting a tummy tuck and liposuction on flanks, hiprolls and upper back. I already went for a consultation and was excited. I just needed to apply for financing. So I applied with Care Credit but was only financed for half of what I need for my procedures. So I am just wondering how all of the self-pay ppl have managed to get any kind of plastics? My insurance didn't cover my sleeve so I'm positive they will not cover cosmetic surgery.
  5. I got a loan thru duvera financial for my sleeve last yr. Now I applied for care credit for my TT, but need to call cuz they approved me for less than what I need :/ I hope they can raise my credit limit.
  6. You look awesome! Im hoping to get an abdominoplasty, liposuction on the flanks, hiprolls, & upper back for a total of $9600. This includes all fees. (im self pay so as soon as I have the $ im going gor it).
  7. Theres a lot of medical loan financing options online for ppl w bad credit. Have u applied for any?
  8. I'm anxious to hear some ideas as well
  9. I find myself wanting a cigarette throughout the day. Idk why, I'm a yr out and think about cigarettes like crazy. I haven't gave in yet tho and really dont want to. Staying strong
  10. Well that's good. And congrars on ur weight loss so far
  11. How has ur healing process progressed? Just curious.
  12. I'll be a "self pay" on plastics so I need to gather estimates so I can come up w a plan to pay :/ I'm hoping I can have something done within a yr from now if not sooner.
  13. I have seen it done on breast as well.
  14. How does ur bottom feel? Painful?
  15. Really? Wow? Sure would like to see pix
  16. I will check him out. Although I don't know how far Novi is from me. I'm closer to the Kalamazoo or grand rapids area. Thnx again.
  17. Wondering if anyone here can recommend a good surgeon for plastics. I'm interested in having an extended TT.
  18. Just looked up what procedures could be done to get rid of "back fat". Ladies you know what I'm talking about. You know those rolls that you get once u snap on your bra. Came across the back lift bra line procedure. I don't likr the scar that will be left. Has anyone had this done??
  19. U look good, congrats on ur weightloss!!
  20. I'm interested in this as well. I'm looking to get an extended TT or lower body lift but sure would like to know for how long I'd need assistance. When I had my sleeve done, I was totally good in a wk.
  21. This is probably easier said than done but I think you are worth it! The only person that needs your love and support is YOU! Why waste your prescious and valuable time on a person that clearly doesn't care for you, your feeling and your overall well-being? There is no excuse to be degraded and mistreated by anyone, especially your husband. I say walk away from him and never look back. This is only a test to prove to yourself that you ARE strong and you DO Deserve BETTER and you can do it with out him. I'm sending you a cyber Hug to show you, that even though I do not know u personally, I'm proud of your accomplishments! You will be happy if you love yourself enough. Make yourself proud now and go for it! Walk away with your head held high!
