WORTH IT$5,000

I'm so excited, I just don't know what to do with myself. I'm 20 years with a bbygirl & tht pregnancy did damage ! I never had a butt but being tht I'm bigger it just makes it look even more flat. So Im having my BBL done with Dr. Gabay in Philadelphia, PA. He's charging me $5000 for lipo of my inner thighs, arms, flanks, hips, & abdomen. He also said I would need a tummy tuck but i don't want to be totally uncomfortable during the healing process which i am absolutely dreading !

Can anyone tell me what garment I should buy, the vitamins I should start taking, & any other thing I will need to help me get through. I'm also hesitate on telling my child's father what I'm doing because Idk what his reaction is going to be & i dont want him to tell anybody but i think I'm going to need his help while I'm healing. Ughhh, Idk how Ima go through with this. H E L P lol

Surgery was pushed back to the 14th, which I'm fine with. My pre-op appt is on the 8th, i havent received my info package from him yet but I'm hoping I get tht today . I'm sooooo excited, I can't wait to get my booty ! I'm alittle wortied tht since my ps suggested I get a tummy tuck & Ideclined, my results are not going to look right. I have some before photos but they are HORRIBLE so I'm hesitate in posting them. I really don't want a video vixen BAM- BOOM butt, I'm focused on getting an hour glass shape with a ROUND FULL ass , a phat ass is all I dream of !!!! I haven't prepared myself for my surgery, Idk what I'm waiting for.. I don't know where to start. 10 more days & I'm Soooo unprepared; no vitamins , no water, no nothing ! I really need to get on the ball .

I'm guessing 3,000 b/c to add it on with my BBL he said it would be 8,000.
