Hello BBL sisters, A little about myself, I...

Hello BBL sisters,
A little about myself, I am a mother and a wife like many of you. I have two boys ages 13, 2. And I am a stay at home mom, which isn't always easy to do. What I enjoy during my free time is snowboarding, traveling, watching Korean Dramas, Yes I'm 4real!! Lol. Which is why I am taking Korean language classes. And I enjoy international cooking when in the mood.
Why I want a BBL, & eventually BA: When I was younger like in my twenties, I was very athletic and although I had a tiny frame with muscles, my butt was always on the small side, yet round. Well, after having my first child my butt grew like nobody business!! And I loved it!! But that azz didn't lazz!! to my surprised. Well NO MORE LADIES!! I'm getting my BOOTay!!
On the downer-side After having a difficult pregnancy with my 2nd child, my entire body just fell apart like a sack of potatoes, literally causing me to become depressed. Now don't get me wrong I know I need to eat healthier, and exercise if I want to have a long lasting banging body. So thats my current GOAL prior to surgery BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT A TT!! and from looking at my pics, I'm sure the doctor will suggest it, but honestly it's not that bad in person.
My Stats: 5'3" 177lbs of burger meat!
My goal is to be 138lbs before surgery date. Why so small, because unlike others I had a pouch at 127lbs. I have a natural tiny frame underneath all this blubber.
Ok, so I put down a deposit with Dr. Salama in June 2012 my original schedule was for March 22nd but I had to move it. Of course I wasn't thinking properly to to switch it with a RS member, as a result its schedule for Sept. Uugh!! But I'm hoping someone will cancel in June so I can go then. Well, my second plan is to go to Dr. Yily, so now I'm waiting for my quote, hoping for a June date 2013. But to be honest I need to see more of her booty work before I make a deposit. Right now I have only seen hips and thighs, so any Yily ladies out there, please show the booties. I would truly be grateful.
Help me guys!! Would you use two differ doctors to...

Well this morning my hubby told me he put 5k in my bank account for the BBL. I am soo happy be cuz he told me he wasn't going to give me any money until I lose enough weight. And that I should schedule my BBL in the Fall. Hec No!!!
On another note: I am starting to pull away form my first choice, Dr. Salama bcuz his butts don't look proportionate to ones body, And I'm afraid my butt will look fake in the end. So, now my choice of doctors are Dr. J, Dr. Perry, and Dr. Salzhuer ( spelling is off). And they cost 4k more, in addition to travel expenses. That alone may push my surgery date towards the end of the summer and I would dread if that happens!
So, what should I do?... Does anyone else feel Dr. Salama butts are getting to wide? it seems as tho he molds his butts the same on all patients. No offense to anyone who is a patient of his. I'm just wondering if my eyes are deceiving me.
My question does NOT pertain to anyone's doctor...

Also, who else is getting stressed playing the BBL waiting game. I feel like I'm losing my mind that it is coming off offensive to others when it's not my intent. So, I may stop responding to blogs that aren't mine cuz clearly we can make a statement and people will mistakingly mis understand IN GENERAL that is. I mean, people aren't posting any more, afraid of their pics being stolen, or criticized....ect. DON'T get me wrong I understand how they may feel. However, It's going to happen no matter what. After all People don't have the same thoughts. And WOMEN IN GENERAL are known to be caddy creatures, we lash out over the littlest of things Unlike men. So my thought is, if everyone start removing their pics, which is a choice, what will real self BECOME!?
Because without Hardcore proof, it's just another here say ( he say, she say).
SOO MY QUESTION IS WHAT CAN ALL RS members do to make everyone on board feel comfortable to share their experience/ pics instead of Running after their procedure is done??
Cuz if this happens, REal Self won't be Real no more to newcomers/ Us
THERE R MANY LADIES ON HERE I WANT TO THANK FOR...

EVERY FRIDAY STARTING MAY 1st, I will log onto the board and post my weight-loss journey in detail with Pics. As I have mentioned, I am not happy with My weight and I noticed the less fat the better the results, and Healing process. Even my husband believe the more fit you are the better your end results will be. So, as difficult as it will be, I will be changing my eating habits, Drinking more water, no Soda/sugars ( I'm gonna cry), and exercise using my p90x, Turbo jam and weight lifting.
I gotta buy all my vitamins, post op workout drinks and protein mixers,. IM SERIOUS YALL!
My current weight is 177.4lbs, I just checked. My goal weight for surgery is 145-140LBS. I know that's about 32.4lbs
Now the parts of my body I want to improve before surgery is my BIG BAT arms ( I will post better pics so u guys can see what I'm Talkn about ), my cottage cheese legs, stomach ( its kinda saggy) ;( and a-little of my upper back, but not too much since its needed for my BBL. Hehee!!
If you have any suggestions ladies feel free to tell me. But please know, I'm doing all this the natural way as possible.
Ok, so my husband doesn't feel positive that I...

So who else is trying to lose weight within three months and what are you doing?
All I know is I want to have nice results and it seems the smaller I am the better the results/ or should I say the closes I am to my ideal weight which is 130-125lbs. Right now I'm 176lbs, and I need to get to 140lbs before surgery or my husband won't pay for my surgery. Such a downer¡
Thanks Everyone for responding to my weight loss...

Unfortunately I have another one, although its not that bad, just disappointing. I just got off the phone with my hubby and he will not be able/ chose not to give me the entire amount $$ for my surgery. Meaning I have to find a way to come up with 3.5k Otherwise my surgery won't happen until Fall. Personally, I don't wanna wait, since i wanted to recover during summer months while my teen is out of school.
For those who are paying cash, how r u saving up. Like, I thought about selling my clothing( nice quality/New), etc...on Craigslist, esty, and EBay. I was going to sell my Apple Mac OX Gen3 that I've used in college but my bfriend said not too... Has anyone tried it with success?
I'm a stay at home my with no family nearby, so I'm limited. And my hubby won't let me work until my youngest is old enough to start pre-K.
So, I went into the basement and fixed it up a bit...

Why am I stepping down?
1. My body is not in great shape. And I know many women are concerned about having enough fat fo the grafting, but I don't wana have to try getting into shape after surgery and risk losing my new butt, Or complain about my results. Also, I wana take my time and do it Right! Cuz I'm struggling hard right now, so I don't believe I will be ready in time.
TRULY, My legs and Azz are Amess, like dimple cheese whipping!! My arms are fat ( bat wing projection) just keeping it real. So, there is no way I'm goin into surgery looking like that. Cuz when I come out, I will still have dimple cheese whipping just with a bigger butt! I mean my goal is to look good naked, not just in clothes.
2. I want a motorcycle bad! Last yr I brought a used 500 Ninja Kawasaki but I returned it to dealer ( purchased but never left the store due to adding on modifications) and used the money to take my hubby to Costa Rica. And Although we had a Lovely time on our trip, I think I would have enjoyed my motorcycle much More! I'm a Thrill seeker! Sky dive etc...
3. I am signing up for a Transformation contest on bodybuilding.com as a form of motivation. And I will have a chance to win some $$. Which could go towards my Future BBL.
So, I have a lot going on in my mind right now. And I wonder if I'm doing the right thing by stepping down. Now, that being said, I will stay to support other BBL sistas, and I will continue posting my weightloss journey until I'm ready to get BBL.
Let me add I paid my deposit last summer of $750,...

Why am I staying for a month be cuz I want to explore DR, and hit the coastal areas later on. My kids are coming, just something to do with them before my oldest start high school. And I want to see how quick I can learn Spanish when forced. Lol I will keep u all posted since I'm not leaving until early June. And no I have not set a sx date yet. I will do that once I arrive! So if I need to stay in DR longer I will do so. Hopefully I will find another place to rent by then with furniture. But my family r simple folks, we don't need nothing fancy. Just clean and safe.
And while I'm there if anyone has questions about this and that, I can help you. I plan to visit Dr Yily and a few others while there.

I mean, I'm not hating on a patient, nor doctor for getting filthy rich off of this temporary fix. But really, is it truly worth all the pain, dis colored skin, indentations, permanent scarring, irregular shape, blood transfusion, infections..... Hell! This is a lot of freakin money to not be guaranteed results we desire. Now I'm not talking about unrealistic dreams, but the ones the doctor promises you before you sign the dotted line. And proudly take ur money with a smile!
Yeah, a good sales pitch means Good money. Why else would customer service be important. It's in business to make money!! After all what's a business without Money!!..... Well, I don't know if I want this surgery is what I'm saying. I don't want to give away my money for something that won't last me 6 years at most. Further more I feel like a Guinea pig or more like a LAB RAT being experimented on. Soon to be! Lol...
Maybe becuz I'm getting my butt done for the wrong reasons. I mean, I'm married to a man who loves me and my body. ( before I became a phaty pooh) and why do I need attention from other men/women sexually that is, hec they won't give a sh#t about me once another Chica makes his/her Entrance. Hell! It's a vicious cycle to be honest. And How come more men don't get cosmetic surgery to attract our attention. I'm just saying.
Any way don't come up in here trying to justify sh#t about y your getting a plumped butt! Cuz I'm just like the rest. Im insecure about my flat squared Azz too...Lol...
I just don't like being taking advantage off by these so called God creating doctors. Bottom line is I want something a bit more permanent with less complications. ( ya! in my dreams) & No I don't want no Damn butt implants.. So don't go there!
Let me add, When I do see men looking at a chicks Azz, it's usually be cuz it's round plump shape, not be cuz it's big..
Any-who, These are my inner thoughts ladies, I just felt like sharing that's all. So don't get all personal be cuz if you do, then that tells me You have an underlying issue that even a big butt won't fix.
Share ur thoughts Ladies but please b tasteful. ( my grammar sucks, I'm aware. Hehee!!)
Some people may think I'm trying to steer others...
- 10 Apr 2013

So please don't call me negative blah blah!! And I will continue given my BBL chicas some support. Shoot! I still want new tits and azz!! Lol... I'm just trying o figure out the best way to get it without all the major complications and $$$.
THANKS for listening yah! Happy Healings!!
Well, I am back to square one again. But I do...

- 12 Apr 2013

Plus every time I see a happier person I start questioning if I'm going the right doctor..lol.. Or the other way around. And that ain't right!! Too me it's just as bad as searching for tha best hair weave! Or next best skin line product!! Or bleachn cream...JUST KEEPN IT REAL, U FEEL!
So, what do I plan to do before Returning back to hang out wit ma crazy Azz BBL sistas....Well, work on getting healthier mentally and physically, exercising more, and giving my family attention. So When I come Back, it ain't gonna b no more Non sense!!!
I'm going to be ready than Ever!!
Ain't gonna lie, I'm going to miss you All for a bit! Loll ...but I'll b back. And YOU BETTA WATCH OUT TOO!

CCSS treating two more cases of buttocks infections
April 12th, 2013 (InsideCostaRica.com) Two more patients are being treated in CCSS hospitals for infections in their buttocks after undergoing cosmetic medical procedures.
The information comes according to the chief of surgery at the San Juan de Dios Hospital, Eliezer Jimenez, after the death of a special education teacher who died on Tuesday due to complications caused by a cosmetic procedure to her buttocks, after spending 76 days in the hospital.
The latest two patients are being treated at Hospital Mexico and Calderon Guardia Hospital. Jimenez did not provide additional details on these cases, but reiterated that the situations were very similar to the one that took the life of Maidury Granados, 33, on Tuesday.
Granados’ complications began on January 9th, after she underwent a procedure to enlarge her buttocks. The procedure was performed by a person who was not an experienced plastic surgeon, at a clinic without the minimum conditions for such a procedure, according to Jimenez.
Granados was admitted to the San Juan de Dios Hospital on January 23rd, where doctors found pints of pus in her left buttock. After attempting to control the infection through drainings and other methods, doctors resorted to amputating the woman’s left leg on April 8th in an attempt to control the infection and save the woman’s life.
Nevertheless, Granados passed away on Tuesday, due to multiple organ failure, after bacteria contaminated her blood.
Francisco Segura, director of the Judicial Police, said Granados’ death is being handled as a criminal investigation.
Meanwhile, prosecutors are currently investigating three other cases of cosmetic procedures gone awry, including that of former judge, Elizabeth Tosi Vega, who died on September 23rd, 2011 due to complications from a cosmetic procedure she had performed at a private clinic in Tibas.
In January, former model Cristina Garcia accused a surgeon in Santa Ana of deforming her buttocks after injecting it with a substance. The case against the surgeon, for negligent injury, is pending in the Pavas prosecutor’s office. The clinic involved in that case was not licensed to perform such procedures, and the doctor had no specialized training in cosmetic surgery.
A doctor in Liberia is also accused of deforming a woman’s abdomen after performing a procedure to remove a scar from a previous cesarean.
To see the butt image of this young model, take a look, soo sad.
Anyway, I'm not secretly talking about any particular doctor but again this surgery is soo serious that its important to know your doctor. Just don't rely on other people to make your decision. Good Luck BBL sistas!!
Can't wait to get my BBL!! Heehee!!
This is soo crazy and scary!! one women goes in to...

1. Avoid most sugars unless its from fruit
2. stay away from fast foods! Such a crime.
3.drink loads of water daily.
4.Eat healthy low fat protein ( lean meat) which I have.
Two weeks ago I visited Costco's and brought skinless chicken breast, salmon, and sweet chile mauhi fish. And then I cooked it on my George Forman grill. I used dry seasons, but sometimes I may add some wine to the mix.
5. Eat steam vegetables and sweet potatoes. Do not boil ur veggies!!
So as you can see I know how to eat healthy, I just can't avoid the extra snacking.
Oh, I'm not exercising as I should but I will start soon since I have a wonderful buddy "Nomoredisgust" helping me out. Heehee!
Anywho, Good luck girls and I will start posting my pics this summer.

God forbid someone contracts HIV, HEPATITUS, OR Deaf!! WILL Chics continue to go to Domininc Republic...etc I won't b surprised! Sadly
I'm just saying what does it take to Wake The F#ck Up! Instead of assuming ladies who go over there, are being careless with there recovery! I'm sure their not stupid enough to spend $$$$ to come back home with infections on purpose. You girls need to stop, and face the facts of reality!
No I have not had my sx yet, but I ain't desperate To ignore RED FLAGS!! Money or no money, creativity or no creativity! Just saying
If anyone has any sense, they would be REPORTING THIS CRAP TO BOARD OF PLASTIC SURGERY IN DOMINIC REPUBLIC right Now... INSTEAD of saying I didn't get infected so I'm good.
You can get angry AT me for expressing my views. I'm cool. But think smart ladies! Or you will pay the consequences 3x. No big butt or skinny waists is Worth this type of ordeal. TO ME THIS AIN'T NO DIFFERENT FROM HAVING UN-protected sex! Because you feel you should Trust the individual with ur life 100%. Only an idiot thinks like that!
I'm really not talking about any particular girl, but I did use a quote from a girls blog I read today.
Truly, I have been feeling edgy about this place sometime now and I got tired of being afraid to Speak Up. I don't care if some crazy chicks Come at me, acting Bipolar...Sending me threat mails...that I would find Hilarious any ways... But open ur hearts and think wisely! Don't let know one convence you that What's Happening more so In DR IS NORMAL!! Cuz it ain't!

1. GOAL IS TO LOSE WEIGHT, SO FAR I only lost a 3lbs, and I'm not happy about that
2. Want my BBL before this year is out. NOW I COULD HAVE HAD MY SX THIS MARCH, THEN N JUNE. BUT I FAILED! I was not ready nor focused like many of you Gurls.
3. CONTINUE STAYING HEALTHY AND being there for my Two Kids And hubby.
So, On JUNE 5th I will be headed to Costa Rica, no more DR. I will stay a month on the CARRIBEAN side near PUERTO VIEJO for one Month! With No CAR!! My Azz will be riding my son around on a bicycle, and local transportation. And of courses walking most of the time.
YES! I'm scared, I won't lie! NO I DON'T KNOW ANYONE THERE, PERSONALLY. NOR HAVE I BEEN TO THIS LOCATION BEFORE. and my Spanish suck!!
LET ME SAY THIS COSTA RICAN TICAS HAVE PLUMP ASSES over there, and small waist. If you looking at plump Azzes all day, every day. WOULDN'T THAT MOTIVATE UR AZZ! Lol... I know it will motivate me, although its torture in away. Hahaa! I ain't no Funny Bunny.
I will be documenting with pics when I'm able to get to wifi areas. Cuz I won't no wifi in my place nor a darn phone. So, I removed my pics to replace new ones. SO Follow me ladies.
LASTLY, HOW DID I PAY FOR THIS TRIP OR SHOULD I SAY, WEIGHT LOSS TRIP. I Tapped into my BBL$$$.
