  1. @@Daisee68 We would have so much fun BEFORE surgery! Dang it! They sent me a price for just breast implants and lift 4,500. I'd be more likely to have that done there but not the TT. It's just too invasive and painful for me to have it done and then try to fly back home after a couple days. I'm going to keep researching until I find all my answers!
  2. @@AvaFern I have been on real self ALL day! Having a surgeon close would be a perk. I've sent my pictures to a few surgeons so I'm going to see what they have to say. We don't have a lot of plastic surgeons in my area so I'm assuming that's why it's so high compared to other places. Just a lift and implants is 10,900 that's a bit much to me. I don't want to go cheapest either because I want a GOOG surgeon. I don't want to do this crap twice. The consultations alone here are $100 a pop so I don't want to spend a fortune trying to see everyone either. I'm not in any huge rush but I would like to have it done and healed before summer. That may not happen.
  3. @@BestDayEver Ha! Yeap! "Americas best " according to the box.
  4. @@JamieLogical Did they use the NAGOR brand of implants on you?
  5. @@AvaFern Wow thank you for all that! I need to take a break. I'm getting overwhelmed trying to decide who to go to, wether or not I want to stay here, go to Tulsa where I can just drive or KC. My naked boobs are all over the place at this point. Luckily no face attached. I like a surgeon in Tulsa and just sent him pictures earlier but the lady on the phone said the lift and then implants may have to be done separately. I do NOT want that. I want both surgeries done at once. TT is still up in there air. I'm not so sure about Mexico now because I researched the implants they use and they aren't approved by the FDA to be used here In the US. Tack on a extra 1000 for my husbands and I's plane tickets and I may as well find someone close enough to drive to. If I went to Mexico I'd want to have the TT too but I can't stay there for two weeks by myself. My husband only gets a week off in May and I'm not going alone for something like that. I've never been to Mexico. Soooooo I'm driving myself crazy with trying to figure it all out. It's giving me a headache! I want breast lift with implants all in one session for a decent price with FDA approved implants, at a reasonable cost....why is this so hard to accomplish?!
  6. @@JamieLogical Yes, give it to me! Do I have to fly there for a consultation? Would I have to stay a whole two weeks?
  7. Ok, so my surgeon here has quoted me at $18,000 for a full tummy tuck, breast lift & silicon implants. I send my pictures to this surgeon in Mexico who is US board certified and the same procedures but with gel implants is $7,500. WTH? Cancun here we come (in May)

  10. I've never seen any McDonald's adds on here but what I have seen is the Unjury "model" that looks like Caitlyn Jenner. That's distracting and uncalled for!
  11. Sorry I keep having to change my profile picture because every time I get one it just shows my boobs in the stinking circle so I fixed that! I like this one though. It glows! It's easy to see my post. Ha!
  12. @@bellabloom Well I almost bought Carmel Hershey kisses today but I fought the temptation.
  13. @@WLSResources/ClothingExch Well, my saliva and soon to be my husbands blood if he brings this crap in the house again.
  14. Ok I've been researching and this Surgeon in Mexico has stellar reviews. He's on "real self" website. You can get a "mommy make over" for 9000-9300 which includes breast augmentation, tummy tuck & Brazilian butt lift. That's pretty darn good seeing as how just a Brazilian butt lift averages 6500-14,000 here in the US. My husbands in the living room planning a Cancun vacation now lol!! Here's what I've found with some prices.
  15. Well my husband brought this home so it's a good possibility over here. Lord, give me strength!! I think he secretly hates me!!

  20. @@NewSetOfCurves Wow! That's not a bad price. I have no clue how much this will cost yet but I was figuring around 12 for the boobs? That may be too much but I'm guessing high so I'm not in shock. I'm not against leaving state if I need to to get the best surgeon and price. I don't know anyone who's been to Mexico to have things done but I'm sure there is someone....
  21. @@jane13 They are usually just for kids but we wanted to try it. It's has never hurt turning it. I was waiting for the pain but nothing. It's fully expanded now. I can't turn it anymore. Trust me I tried. I have my appointment next Wednesday so hopefully we can move on to the braces.
  22. @@Queen of Crop Congratulations! Exciting! Of course I have nothing to offer in the way of answering any of your questions but still...yay!!!
  23. I'm glad I could put my whole mouth on display for everyone and their mother to see lol! Whatever I have no shame!
  24. It's going to be a long process. I will have braces put on soon to Finnish pulling everything outward
