So yesterday my package finally came in the mail from doctors salama's office, with instructions on pre-op and post op care, along with a list of vitamins that they recommend. for those who do not have insurance I filled all 3 of my prescriptions minus the colace since its over the counter and I paid 71.00 for my meds, and pain killers at walmart with no insurance. I also picked up a few other items that I needed. I'm missing Bioflavanoid and arnica montana tablets and a really good waist cincher which I plan to purchase on amazon sometime today. I started taking my vitamin pills last week. which I should've started sooner but i've been so busy with trying to work my ass to pay this surgery off. im proud to say my balance is now $1500.00 and in two weeks that'll be paid. I went and purchased a comfy house dress along with compression comfy socks and bedroom shoes. I found two lycra shirts that I plan on wearing under my garment to avoid lines or marks on my skin, I will post pictures of those too. I'm welcome to all suggestions since Im going into this head first and need all the advice that I can receive. I have alot of maxi dresses like literally 40 of them hanging in my closet (no exaggeration) so I wont spend any extra money on those. other than that if any of the vets has purchased a massage package from salamas team can someone please inform me on the price, so I'm aware of how much to put up for it. I need a directors chair or something I can use because laying on my stomach all day isnt going to cut it. until then my first appt is NOV 7th (yikes) and that's the day im scheduled to have my blood work and ekg done at salama's office since I didnt take the medical insurance at my job I have no choice and to be quite honest I prefer to just get it over with instead of calling around everywhere and having the lab refer me for the ekg. I was told by Jennifer it will be 175.00 for my labs and ekg. for those who are inquiring im getting my full back, flanks, stomach and inner thighs done. any recommendations on good compression garments and anything else I may need please feel free to comment or inbox me I'd really appreciate it. happy healing to those of you whose already had surgery and good luck to those that are around the corner.

I feel alot better so I decided to post a more detailed review. I had my surgery Dec 7th on Friday at 7:30 am. even though It was suppose to be at 7:00 am I received a text from Ruben like 9:00 at night confirming that it will be at 7:30. I still managed to get the facility center at 7:00 and Monica showed up exactly at 7:30. I went and undressed, pee'd in a cup for the pregnancy test and was off to get marked. Salama came in around 7:50 and we chit chatted a little. he asked me what type of butt or shape I was going for? I told him a round circle butt. he said I had a heart shaped butt and he would follow that pattern. he asked if I wanted a shelf I told him no. The anthestiologist went over everything and before you know it I was laying on the table with an IV in my arm knocked the hell out. while in recovery I felt myself moving around and squirming in pain. I remember telling Monica that my feet were very cold. I woke up around 2:30. the first thing I realized was that I was still naked with no garment and I just had on my robe that I brought. when I woke up I threw up from the anesthesia. it was so nasty but I felt better. they wheeled me off in a wheel chair and I sat on my butt for 2 minutes which felt like 2 hours. i've been eating soup and drinking water water and more water!! gatorade after gatorade. I went for an appointment today and Dr. Salama said they were able to get alot of fat in and that my butt was toooo big to put a garment on it.I told him my thighs were very swollen from the thigh lipo but he was like just rest and come in Wendesday and we will put you on a garment, I must admit it has made peeing alot better. I walk around and move as much as I can. Im not fully standing straight when I walk but im getting there. my back already is starting to itch. my mom rubbed benadryl on my back it felt so good! im actually ready for the massages because my neck arms and back are so stiff! I have a cotton waist cincher for compression on my belly. im standing right now as I type. I feel alot better and im getting out of the bed much better. I will post better pictures when im able.

I've had 2 massages done so far. for me the experience was not that bad at all. I didnt take a perc because at that point I was through with how they made me feel. it was either feel nauseated or take the pain. I chose the pain. lol Celia was my massage therapist and man she did a great job. she showed me all of the fluid she was draining out of my body. the back massage didnt hurt neither did my thighs, The stomach was the killer. according to Celia where ever you feel the burning sensation is where the fluid is building.. when she touched the parts of my body that burned that was the most painful part. I since then had another massage and it didnt hurt at all its really mind over matter. before I carry on futher, the numbness I was feeling in my right foot and hand is because that part of my body wasnt circulating enough blood. the right side of my body is the swollest due to the thigh lipo, and from what i've learned the tube that they use to atick down your throat to monitor your breathing when you're sleeping can cause your tongue to lose a little sensation. that too is coming back slowly and I can now taste my food it's just something im not use too, since I like to savor the juices of my food! lmao maybe it's best for me and will help me maintain my weight j/k.. but anyways back to the massages afterwards you do feel less stiff and very much normal. so fast forwarding.. Celia gave me the butt out garment and squeezed 1400 cc's in an X large. I went walking around Publix with my asshole on fire. I couldnt take it, when I got home I needed help just taking it off. immediately after taking it off I had a dent in my ass..No ma'am not after paying almost 7 stacks cash I took that shit off and put my old garment back on.. what I use for compression on my tummy is the tummy tuck wrap around cinchers for more tighter compression along with my old garment until I receive my waist cincher in the mail that I ordered. I have my third massage this thursday and I plan on giving that garment back to them in exchange for the regular garment just in an XL sixe. The day of my 2nd massage Nomie removed the back drain. I felt a small burning sensation nothing bad, I was told to come back thursday for the front drain but I ended up meeting with dr salama at the surgery center yesterday to have my heart rate check which went from 140 beats per minute the day of surgery to 104. Ruben has been the one delaying info between salama and I about my concerns and pounding headaches. Salama prescribed me some medicine to clear up sinus infections and nasal block because the right side of my ear was muffled which is the same side I was getting the headaches and hearing the heart beats. he also removed my front drain which again I didnt feel anything at all..
I'm taking the medicine as told and hoping it clears my right ear. I no longer have pounding headaches but I when I lay down I still faintly hear my heart beat very very faint. in my opinion I belive until this extra weight is off of me then my heart doesnt have to pump so much harder to circulate my blood. Im a tall girl but never in my life have I been this size besides my pregnancies. my normal weight has always been between 167-172 lbs.now that my heart rate is more controlled, the less I hear my heartbeat in my head.
so now the fun part I've been eating still high protein food, fruits and water. I no longer drink gatorade because its full of sugar and it ends up making me back thirsty, so I now notice my butt is getting soft and starting to jiggle in little places. I've never measured my waist or ass because for one I've been busy trying to heal and make sure my kids are off to school and that they've eaten and homework is done etc and havent had the time to actually do me.. last night was a very great night. I slept for about 7 hours and woke up feeling like a queen.. the other day my eyes went back swelling but again that's because I wasnt doing enough walking. all I WANTED TO DO WAS LAY DOWN BECAUSE THE HEARTBEAT NOISE WAS MAKING ME WANT TO JUMP OFF A CLIFF. but im up and moving now because I know this could've been worst. swelling has gone down alot. in my opinion I believe after a BBL the only compression should be for your waist and not for your ass. regardless of the fact the swelling is going to go down naturally, I feel the garment only adds to it. so from time to time after I go number 2 I take a bath and wrap my tummy tight as ever with compression and let this ass breath. I do yoga stretches as I was instructed from Celia. I know I had inner thigh lipo but I use my heating pad 3 times a day for an hour and its helped with the swelling tremendously. I use it for my back, stomach and thighs and I also massage my own thighs the same way Celia does it and I see a drastic change. their still swollen but way better than before.
I will continue to use the garment but around week 3 or 4 I plan to STOP and just use a very compressed waist cincher.. I know that with swelling gone the illusion of a really big booty has alot to do with a very small waist which is what Im working on. I know it may not be a smart thing to do but with the heating pad and daily massages on my thighs I feel will keep the swelling down. plus drinking plenty of water and staying away from salty foods. I wouldnt recommend anyone else to follow me but I also thinks the garments form your ass into other shapes. Dr. Salama said everyone was complaining about the original garment so thats why they switched to the butt out garments. the butt out garments are for asses that has received lesser amounts of cc's where the ass isnt bulging out of it, mines was ripping the thread in my a**hole TMI so that definitely was not for me,I dont care what they say. I even told Salama I refuse to wear it and he agreed. he did tell me that the one im wearing is too loose but I plan to switch this thursday to an XL but just the regular garment. ill wear that for like 2 weeks and will just stop wearing it all in all.
I'll post a few pictures for you ladies and let me know what you think, whether good or bad I appreciate your thoughts, concerns, comments etc. oh and I left out that I went number 2 since day 2 post op all by myself. it was hard but not impossible, I just took some rolled up towels and leaned forward on by laundry basket and since im tall with long arms I wiped my own ass lol.. My boyfriend has sustained so much trauma from this surgery.he works over night and hasnt been able to sleep due to taking me everywhere and missing sleep,hearing me complain and cry so I did what I had to do. I hate depending on people even loved ones. since day 2 I've been able to poop everyday. I guess it has alot to do with the foods I eat but oh well lol I mastered it to a T.
any questions ask away..
AGAIN ALL OF YOU WHO PRAYED FOR ME, TEXTED ME AND INBOXED ME WHETHER IT WAS A COMMENT OF CONCERN OR A COMPLIMENT I APPRECIATE YOU GIRLS!! I REALLY FOUND SOME STRENGTH IN READING THOSE MESSAGES AND IT PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE EVEN WHEN I FELT LIKE CRYING FROM PAIN. this surgery is not easy and can break the toughest down. I consider myself tough and very pain manageable but baaaaabbbbyy this will BREAK YOU DOWN only if you let it. so for future BBL ladies please eat, drink and walk . take your meds and just keep doing it until you regain your energy back.. much love ladies xoxo headed to the mall so I can break necks :) :)

So let me tell you gals/guys what happened today. SOOOO it never fails that a day before your massage is scheduled Nomie or someone from the office calls you to confirm your massage but yet when you make it on time IT'S NEVER ON TIME!! WTF! this is my 3rd and last massage probably with the office. here's the thing. if the massage is not going to start on time then why be there on time? Nomie has called me at least one time and advised me they were running behind 1 hour but I feel like the office where the consultations and post op care/massages is too small and for one more than one massage therapist is needed. when I showed up for my appt this morning at 10:00 am mind you at least 10 people were all standing around in the lobby not included the BBL ladies who cannot sit down. bad enough everyone is looking at you like you have a disease or some shit! and I waited at least 45 minutes before I can get my massage. this is not the first time this has happened. this has happened ALL MY MASSAGE SESSIONS so all in all he does great work but the follow up care and massages should definitely come better than that. now to the massage, I never saw this lady before. but she came in with a travel massage table, took 10 minutes to set everything up, and spoke to me in spanish the whole time. she tried her best to speak as much english as she could and I tried my best to understand as much spanish lol but she was very very aggressive and did a great job. only thing is I felt like she had me on my butt too long when she was massaging my stomach. she made me turn on each side something different the other massage lady Celia has never done, but I like them both. her name was Laura I believe. she kept complaining how hot she was in spanish and that she was sweating lol.. She also mentioned that I can boil some chamomile tea and put it in the refrigerator and take a guaze and rub it on my stomach. she said it was good for inflammation. finally I have my XL regular garment, not the one with the ass out, and im now wearing the board for the front and my XL garment can clapse to the second row which I thought was great. other than that ladies I feel over all the surgery was worth it, but like any doctor in high demand nothing is going to be perfect. everyone in the office is super nice and friendly but I guess today and tomorrow would be hectic considering that the office would be closed monday and tuesday due to the holidays and maybe they were trying to squeeze as many people in as possible. but I know I was aggravated because I'm ready to be gone with my day not stand around in the office looking at the tv that never has no damn sound lol ayways I posted a few new pictures as I'll be 2 weeks post op tomorrow and probably would do a review 1 month post op.. happy holidays and merry christmas to you all xoxoxoxo

So I went to work this Wednesday and man it's been difficult! I had to stand up for 9 hours. talking about uncomfortable and frustrated. my job requires me to be focused and detailed even though its a desk job.. so since Ive been working my co workers keep telling me my ass is fat! like wtf lol! I have everyone looking at me not trying to sound conceited but literally people are looking with their looking ass :) it's gotten so bad my supervisor pulled me to the side and was like "um what type of surgery did you have? I'm like I had surgery on my back.. she's like what's wrong with your back.. i'm like cursing this bitch out in my head. like damn she's nosey isnt that violating my hippa rights? this is concerning my health why the f*** you want to know.. lol that's what I felt like telling her. I was like I had a cyst on my back. she was like oh because I figured if you had back surgery you would be sitting. I was like it hurts!! everytime she's talking with someone when I walk by her desk they automatically stop and look up at me. smh a bunch of the girls at work give me stares but in a way like ugh!! lol oh well!! my problem is Im going back to work next week wednesday im off for another 4 days thank god then ill be 1 month post op that friday. im really thinking about sitting down. for the month of jan im going to be extremely busy and cant afford my work load to slack due to me not sitting down. bad enough im already tall so imagine me with my back hunched trying to type for 9 hours.. smh just a night mare. for the past 3 days my ankles has been swollen and my feet are crazy swole because I havent sat down at work. when I take my hour lunch I stand by myself and eat. people at work look at me like I lost my damn mind, so what I've been doing is walking around the building playing it off as if im burning some calories lol. I know my supervisor is dying to ask me again because when she talks to me her eyes are on my ass but her mouth is moving. she always have this smirk on her face like yeah I know your secret.. I know one thing attention is something you'll definitely get so if you're not an attention lover get ready. what do you ladies think? should I sit down at 1 month post op? at least for 2 hours? because very soon im going to have to drive myself to work anyway. I do not take my boppy to work for the purpose of keeping them nosey people out of my business. I tried sitting today at work. I rolled a big jacket up and put it under my thighs and applied all of my weight to my thighs. but I just felt so stupid and uncomfortable trying to balance my weight and not poke my ass out too much. im now wearing a waist cincher by slender bodies size medium that I brought from the mall. that thing sucks the soul out of you. I would be buying a squeem this week as suggested by Missnewbooty :) the smaller the waist the bigger that ass looks! also the last thing I would like to include. ladies please eat right and drink alot of water. im a fat girl by heart no offense to anyone. but since I gained my appetite back all I want to do is eat. I try to eat healthy food. but living in miami just doesnt help with all this poison food around us lol. all the grease and fatty foods. I eat fruits veggies and some type of protein a day but at the end of the day im still a woman and crave sweets. I had ice cream the other day, some cup cakes today and lets not forget a good soul food christmas meal from christmas. I feel so bad after I eat something I know damn well I dont have no business eating. so for the new years I told my boyfriend family and friends DO NOT LET ME EAT JUNK FOOD OR BAD FOOD IF I DO SLAP THE S*** OUT OF ME BECAUSE I'D BE DAMNED IF IM WASTING MY HARD EARNED MONEY :) I posted a few pictures in some bathing suits, will be back next year goodnight dolls!
