Don't have much to review b/c I haven't had the...

Don't have much to review b/c I haven't had the surgery yet but so far I can say that I love the interaction between the patient coordinator, Nancy, and myself. Originally, I was going to go with Dr. Jimmerson but when I sent in the e-mail request for a consult and didn't receive a call for a few days I decided to call them and they called me back a couple days later and told me I couldn't even get a consult with him until March 2015! I'd probably have to wait another 3 years just to have the damn surgery. Would have given birth twice by then. Lol.

So I called Dr. Salama's office and right away the receptionist said take your three pics (back, front, side) and e-mail us and we'll get back to you in a couple days. Exactly two days later Nancy called and Dr. S had already seen my pics and gave me his opinion which was basically I need to lose 16-17 pounds and he can give me the badunkadunk I want.

I'm 6'2 and 256 pounds and I most definitely have some meat on me but I really like my thickness and I was worried if I lost the weight AND had lipo I wouldn't like how thin I was. Nancy replied right away and let me know I didn't have to lose the weight if I didn't want to. It was just from their experience most patients want to be thinner. I'll be happy with losing my back fat and handles...the rest can all stay. I'm also getting my arms done...that's the one thing I don't like cause I lost so much weight after my first pregnancy and my arms stayed the EXACT same after 6 years.

So I am soooooooo excited! I'm starting to become obsessed lol.

I really wanted my surgery before I started my master's program in Jan and thank God there was a cancellation otherwise I would have to wait until May 2014 for the surgery. So I'm scheduled for Nov. 26/2013 and I am looking forward to getting rid of this flat butt and have something to match my shape and large breasts. Yayy!

4 MTHS to go! Are we there yet?

I can't believe it's been less than a month since I booked my appointment. Lol. It feels like forever but I'm hoping once I start working the time will go by faster. I'm moving to an amazing luxury apartment next week so I'm really excited about that. I've been living in some HOT, cramped quarters for the last year in the middle of nowhere and I've been so bored depressed. I'm a very social person and thrive off community/communication so I can't wait to be living more in Toronto. I'm not working so while the hubby is at work I've managed to pack up the entire apartment just to make the time go by faster.

I've been looking at pics and I have to say the best ass on this planet is Serena Williams! I love her body. Strong and beautiful! The attached pics are what I'm gonna show Dr. S.

Initially, I wasn't going to lose any weight because I like my size but I think it won't hurt to tone. I went to see Dr. Jugenberg in Toronto before I booked with Salama and he straight up told me I didn't have enough fat which sounded like complete nonsense. I almost gave up after that one visit because he's the only reputable doctor in T.O. that does butt lifts but my hubby said we can go to the states if I want to and thank God for that!

I think I'm going to lose 10 pounds. Tone up my arms and upper thighs a bit. I know I'm in desperate need of a tummy tuck but I decided it doesn't make sense since I want to have two more kids in the next few years. I'll wait till after for the T.T. but the ass needs to happen ASAP. Lol.

Counting down the days. Sigh...............

Anyone had conflictions with morals and surgery?

So I'm 3 months and 3 days away from surgery and I know it's going to come quickly. I start work at the end of September and I'm sure time will fly even faster!

I am so excited to have the surgery and I think about it every day. I've told a couple of my close friends and I have to say the comments are 50/50. My friend, SM, thinks I'm only getting it cause of the man I'm with and I should love myself for me etc etc but that's so not the case. I've always wanted to get it done but at the time I had issues I didn't know there was such thing as a BBL and I didn't have th emoney for it anyway. Now I'm with my hubby and he's willing to pay for it so why not?

My mom's response was "Girl, you're crazy!" I don't really know what that means but she's been supportive in the sense that she's willing to come to Florida to check on me and she wanted to make sure I wasn't getting the surgery done at some hole in the wall or by a fraudulent doctor. Other that she's cool but I think she gave up on my when I got my tattoos. Lol

My sister said "I'm scared! There are so many bad things that happen! Please be careful!". Sigh. Not much I could say to her except to chill out.

My other three friends SB, RC and SC are like "Do the damn thing!" "You're gonna be sexy as hell. Gonna get us our free drinks when we go out." I'm so jealous and excited for you!"

It hasn't really affected me all that much especially since the man I'm with every day of my life and who I'm going to spend the rest of my life with is 100% on board so it really helps with the negativity.

However! The one thing I am struggling with is whether this is morally the right thing to do. I grew up in the church and I've always been taught God doesn't make mistakes and I feel like going to get my ass done is kind of.....disrespecting him in a way? But then I also tell myself God didn't make me with cellulite and a stretched abdominal region, or HUGE F size breasts either and I got my breasts done with no hesitation at all. I also think the reason is more for vanity than a need (like with my breasts) so does that make it wrong?

Let me know if anyone has experienced this doubt.

I'm still getting it done though. Lol.

Waited 5 months post-op to leave review. * Dr. Salama is a sweetheart and doesn't promise you the world. Very realistic. Said he put as much fat in my butt as he could. He did say I would get a cuff -- I personally don't think I got one but we will see if my butt changes anymore. He will not do revisions/changes for a year anyway. He's a very busy man and I felt it. Spent five minutes with me after the surgery on my after care visit and I felt he had more important things to do. That was the only time I saw him after my surgery. Once you get your last massage I haven't heard a peep from anyone. Don't know if that's normal or not. It took forever to get my first call back when I left a message and when they called they said his brother would get back to me regarding a question only he could answer and I still haven't heard back from him two months later. That's why they get a 3 star for phone or e-mail responsiveness. I feel they only answer you quickly before your surgery. The staff is very SWEET except for the nurse right after the surgery who rushes your ass into a wheelchair cause she wants to close up.
