Im schedule for a breast augmentation for September 2017. I will be flying out to Florida and I'm scheduled with Dr. Salama. Prior to this procedure I had a gastric sleeve done almost 2 years ago and I lost over 100 pounds including my breast. I'm not looking to get big breasts I never had big breast. I just want some nice "high school" [RS bleep]. I am so looking forward to this breast augmentation and definitely this flight to Miami. Never been to Miami so I'm definitely looking forward to the beaches. If anyone had a breast augmentation done by Dr. Salama in Florida please share your experience with me I am a little anxious about this procedure, but I'm very excited.Updated on 28 May 2017: Their breast are so pretty. Not sure if I want them that big though. I'm looking for a nice full B-C. I'm currently in a B cup however I don't fill it the cup ;(Updated on 8 Jun 2017: I'm still counting down the days until my breast augmentation. I'm so ready to have nice round full breast. I've been researching other procedures like a bbl and a tummy tuck and dr. Salama does pretty good work. I'm really thinking about a bank though. I already have butt I want more roundness and projection. Is that too much to ask for? Updated on 2 Jul 2017: So I just booked my hotel and my appointment is made to get med clearance. I was gonna pay for my ticket, but I decided to wait until my med clearance is final. I'm it worried about not passing it. I'm pretty healthy to say the least. So I'm gonna stay a week in Florida just to be on the safe side lost op. I've really been thinking about a BBL.... I do know I'm gonna do 1 thing at a time. I still have to maintain with bills, babies, and life PERIOD. Updated on 6 Jul 2017: Today I went for my medical clearance. Not to bad. I already knew what to expect since I'm already in the nursing field. I go for labs in the AM. EKG normal not pregnant so that's a plus!!Updated on 11 Jul 2017: So today I had to go back and do a UA w/CS at the lab. That completed my lab work. So now I'm just waiting. Definitely should hear something by Monday. As I said before I'm not worried about the clearance, I'm pretty healthy for the most part. No health problems. I also added full abdominal w/ flank liposuction today with Nancy. I'm super excited and not to mention Nancy is so sweet. Updated on 15 Jul 2017: So my doctor called back with all of my labs. With an exception of my vitamin D level being a little low. All of my labs were good. I called Zuny at Dr. Salama and asked if they received it she said yes and it was under review and if I don't receive a call from them I'm good for surgery!!!! Haven't received a call so u know what that mean it's fair to say I'm good for surgery...Yay!! Gonna start looking for tickets today. Just under 7 1/2 weeks to the date I get some new girls and this fat sucked out!!!! Updated on 18 Jul 2017: So yesterday I've decided to change my surgery to a tummy tuck with Liposuction of the flanks. I could've gotten it all done at once but the way my life, bills, babies, are set up I can't afford it right now. So it's either one or the other. And I rather have this extra skin from my Gastric surgery removed. So all in all I'm ready to purchase my plane ticket!!! Updated on 29 Jul 2017: Tickets purchased! I'm all set. Zuney at Dr. Salama's office emailed with the questionnaire to fill out. So I have to get that back to her ASAP. My husband will accompany me to Florida and take care of me. I also stared getting post op supplies that I will need for recovery. I also ordered Faja from amazon as well. I probably will need to look into the zip up sports bras too. Any idea of where I can find some at? Updated on 8 Aug 2017: I've been looking at the perfect breast for me all day!! I've also been educating myself on breast augmentation (low med high profile) saline vs silicone. Projection, diameter, width. MY MY MY I must say it's a lot when trying to find the perfect breast for your frame. I'll post a few pics that I fell in love with and would love to have my breast turn out like those. These are the pictures I'm going to show my PS.Updated on 14 Aug 2017: So today I added silicone to my package instead of saline. The reason I didn't have it before was because of the risk of the silicone implant verses to saline the implant. But after careful research and educating myself and constantly looking at other people silicone breast augmentation, I finally decided to pay for silicone which was an extra thousand dollars. I also did a little shopping getting medical supplies, bras, looking for comfortable clothing for after surgery. Updated on 20 Aug 2017: Anyone had trouble filling their prescription for their pain medication in their state? If so what did you all do?Updated on 25 Aug 2017: I have 2 weeks to go before I cross over into flat land and beautiful breast. I'm super excited. I already packed my suitcase and filled my medicines. I will have to get my pain medicine filled in Florida. Texas has strict laws regarding pain medicine and what type of prescription paper is used. Nonetheless I'm stoked!! Check back in later Updated on 30 Aug 2017: I really didn't think HH would be this bad. It is very devastating for my city and surrounding areas. People have lost all their stuff and sadly family members. It's very touching and heartfelt to see so many people come and rescue others in need. I'm very very fortunate and blessed to not have my home or cars flooded. It's now time to rebuild Houston...Updated on 30 Aug 2017: Updated on 7 Sep 2017: I received a call from Dr Salama's office saying surgery was gonna have to be rescheduled due to the hurricane. :(. I was disappointed, but hey I definitely understand. I just went through Hurricane Harvey. I made it through safely, but when it's time to evacuate and it's mandatory with a category 5 hurricane... ITS TIME TO GO. So I'm back to patiently waiting and trying to get my personal life together! Updated on 21 Sep 2017: 9 more days and I'm off to Florida. My bff is coming with me. I just hope no more hurricanes come. I'm ready to get my new breast and flat stomach and to just get this over with. Updated on 3 Oct 2017: It’s time for surgery, Dr. Salama has came in and marked me up. now I’m waiting to go in the back. I’m not nervous just anxious and ready to be on the other side; SALAMAFIED!!!! Updated on 8 Oct 2017: So I’m within the first week recovering and I looked at card that was given to me stating the type of breast I got and the amount that was filled in it. Well, I noticed in parenthesis it said (saline online). So I proceed to grab my paperwork and it also said saline with a total amount of 11,499. Now remind you Dr. Salama asked me if I was getting saline or silicone and. I said silicone. He called the office verified it and I was right I paid for silicone. But now I’m confused becuz I’m not sure what he gave me saline or silicone! I pray to Moises that it’s silicone and not saline. I have a post op appointment tomorrow at 1130. I will inquire then. Updated on 1 Nov 2017: Well here are some pics of my results so far..Updated on 1 Nov 2017:

Hello RS, I've been stalking this website for some time now. Trying to make up my mind about what procedure to do first and how to do it. Well my first interest was BBL, that was before my 3rd child. Well, that went out the window because now, I'm at a weight I don't want to be, never never never seen before and I want this weight off. My second procedure was a TT. I figured why spend all that money on getting that done, when I need to lose the weight first. I never had a problem with working out or eating right. I just wasn't discipline enough to keep at it. IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE. AND THAT CHANGE IS NOW!! Well, I've decided to have a Sleeve Gastrectomy done. The Doctor I've chosen is Dr. Fleix Speigle of Houston, TX. Yes, I've done my research on him, couple of my coworkers had the procedure done, So I'm GAMED! I've already had my EGD done, PERFECT! Now I'm awaiting insurance approval in which I know it's covered by my insurance so IT'S THE WAITING GAME! MEANWHILE CHECK OUT MY PHOTOS. I already know what some of you might say "you don't need that, your not fat" blah blah blah. Look I'm one many or few who carry their WELL AND WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE. but this weight has to come off. My weight at my consultation was 230.00, this was about 2 weeks ago.. Updated on 10 Sep 2015: I finally got a phone call from my case manager regarding insurance approval of the procedure so I'm scheduled for pre op on Monday and scheduled for my procedure on Thursday I'm super excited I'm ready to start this journey I know that theres probably going to be some hardships at first with the food but I know as long as I can keep focus and be determined and disciplined I know I can overcome it. I know some of you are like thats super duper fast but he's going to be going out of town after next week so I won't be able to get in until October and so my birthday is in November so I definitely want to lose some weight before my birthday so that's why I opt in to have the procedure next week. Updated on 12 Sep 2015: Well today is the day I'm going to start my liquid diet. I was told to start monday which is my pre-op date. It would have only given me 3 days to be on it. I seen and read others being on their diet for 5-14 days. I did pig out yesterday. Y'all wish me luck! Updated on 14 Sep 2015: Today I went for my pre-op appt. Everything went as planned except for the fact that I was up there all darn day. I'm ready for Thursday. I'll keep you all updated. Updated on 14 Sep 2015: This liquid diet isn't to bad. I've been drinking this lean protein shake from gnc. Taste pretty good. I have 3 a day and try to get water in between. No headaches just tired becuz I worked last night and got off at 715a.m. but had to go downtown. YES I'M SLEEP DEPRIVED!!! Oh did I mention I have a spoiled 5 mth old. Oh forgot to tell you all I met up with the nutritionist again today to go over the first 2 days post surgery. Very informative. Updated on 15 Sep 2015: Well today I went on some errands I picked up some alive multi vitamins. I also picked up premier protein shakes "ready to go"from Walgreens. They are delicious. I also went to gnc and picked up advance whey protein powder. Went to walmart pick up more water chicken noodle soup broth crystal light. Just a few things. Since I can't take the vitamins for the first week. I didn't pick any up. I'll get those after followup appt with the surgeon. But I feel okay again today. No headaches. A little decrease in energy. I find my brain is more in tune every time i pass up a fast food joint. It's like I have this little person on my should saying "girl just get a little burger, it won't kill ya" "get that candy bar gul" it's like everything ( unhealthy food) is more pominent now. Im glad to say i didnt give in, Hard as it was. Y'all pray for me!!! Oh the things that I picked up were approved by the surgeon. I'll take pic of the things I picked up for those who want to see. Updated on 15 Sep 2015: Just wanted to post what I'm doing for my liquid diet. I'll have my 1st shake around 9-930. 30 Mins later I have a bottle of water w/ or w/o crystal lyte. 1130-1200 I'll have another shake 30 Mins later water w/ or w/o crystal lyte. 2 hrs later a sugar free popsicle about 2 hours later a popsicle with a bottle of water. I try and get my last protein shake in between 530 and 630. I'll end my day with another bottle of water. Now the bottle of water are dasani water 16.9floz. So if you drink 4 of those a day. That's your minimum limit of water per day anyway. Had to resist working out on these days becuz I'm on this diet. So I don't wanna use up what I'm putting in. Not to mention I'm urinating like crazy.... Updated on 16 Sep 2015: Well it's the night before my surgery and I'm preparing a bag and saying my prayers. I have to be there at 6. So I'm leaving my home at about 415 a.m. anyone who lives in Houston knows that traffic is a MF'er. I'm trying to prepare myself mentally becuz it's no turning back for me. I'm ready, don't know how I will feel when I get there. I'll be posting some pics. Y'all keep me in prayers and I'll keep y'all posted Updated on 17 Sep 2015: Well I'm here you all..

I find myself gulping and shhhhhhhh lawd do I pay for it...which is a constant reminder " DD you better sip" what I experience when I don't sip is basically gas pains in my chest. I find that I have to "manually" make myself burp in order to get relief from the gulping. But I know day by day I will get used to it. 2ndly ya'll I'm trying my best to get my water in. In which he told me to make sure I get at least a "water bottle" in so I don't dehydrate myself. COOL!! BUT SOMETIMES I DONT FEEL LIKE IT OR I FEEL LIKE I DON'T HAVE NO ROOM IN THIS NEW STOMACH.

I lost another 5 pounds for a total of 21 pounds from my highest weight which is awesome today though I've been experiencing like hunger pains I don't know what it is but that's the only way I can describe the feeling it's like a hunger pain I'm getting my protein in and I'm getting my water in and my urine is fine so I don't know I thought maybe it was just some gas so I took a gas X. It kind of went away after that but I am tolerating more liquids without any complications I do find that if I gulp it'll be a little hard to digest. I am starting to incorporate a vitamin one at a time per my dietitian.
