I knew I had a flat butt at the age of 12. I'm...

I knew I had a flat butt at the age of 12. I'm African and although I have seen ladies with less butt than I have, I have always wanted a bigger one. My expectations? Oh, wow! I would like to have an hourglass figure and a bubble butt!! I will post some wish pics later.

When do I want this?? ASAP!! Seriously though, I have wanted this for as long as I remember. I researched and researched and was overjoyed when I discovered that there was an alternative to getting butt implants. I have lurked on RealSelf for ages, reading the reviews of all the beautiful ladies and I am now ready to do this.

I know there is a long way to go in terms of understanding what I can possibly get. This is a journey that, to me, is exciting and will be fulfilling a long held dream. Sooo here we go...

A little about me...

I am turning 40 in exactly 7 days!!! Boy, do I love being older. I feel much more confident and comfortable in my skin. I feel sexier and frankly sex just gets better with age in my experience. What's not love about turning 40? Nada.

I have 3 kids. A girl almost 10, and two boys 7 and 5 years old. I love them to bits. I adopted the girl when she was 6 months old and had my two boys via c-section. One thing no one ever told me about pregnancy is how it changes your body so much. My stomach literally collapsed!! I don't get it. I have friends who have flat bellies after having 5 kids. But such is life and thank goodness for tummy tucks, right?

Now to my issues with a lack of butt. I am an AFRICAN woman with a butt and hips so small that one wonders if there was a genetic coding mistake somewhere. My sisters have big butts and hips. Me? The opposite. I have always felt inadequate somehow when it comes to my body. Before babies I was fit and somehow managed to look hot. Once the babies came, the ensuing pot belly just made me look weird. Unbalanced. Unproportional I am not one to want a surfer's six pack but honestly a belly with no butt or hips becomes the central focus of anyone looking at you!!! At least it has been mine for the last 5 years or so. When I look in the mirror, all I see is belly, belly, belly!!!!

I am 5.4", about 170 lbs, medium frame and otherwise very happy. I am almost done with my divorce, in a custody battle with my soon to be ex who is just a dreamer, have no lack of dates and pseudo-relationships. The next serious relationship I have will end up in a marriage. One thing about growing older is that you tend to become really picky about who you give your time and love to. I don't have time for heartache or mind games, or the nonsense push and pull that comes with new relationships. I no longer expect shivers down my spine and that heady rush that comes from infatuation. I doubt that with my experience in love I can be infatuated at this stage.

So that's moi... I am attaching pics of my belly and my little butt and hips. I sent these and more to the Drs. Fingers crossed they can perform a miracle!!!

Upside down pics????

Okay.... Obviously I didn't notice the pics were upside down!!! Let me do this again... Errr help. My pic are right side up on my computer but get upload the wrong way round. Any one know why?

Dr. Salama is an amazing doctor. I only spoke with him the morning of my surgery but that is because he has the most amazing and efficient staff who take care of all the details for him. The ladies Cynthia, Nomie, Nancy, Evelyn, Zuny and Karen are very good at scheduling and and answering follow up questions. The offices, the medical centre where the procedures are performed are up to standard and professional. I found Dr. Salama a calm and confident doctor who did not feel the need to make a sale and did decline to lipo a certain area of mine. That kind of honesty and integrity is important in a surgeon. You can also reach him at anytime on his emergency cell phone. Overall, I would give Dr. Salama 5 STARS!!
