I was initially going to with Dr Mendieta but after reading all of the reviews I have finally decided on Salama! I ill be flying in from the UK so really wanted a May/June date instead of July as flights are very expensive around this month. So fingers crossed I can get a slightly earlier date im super excited!

Welcome to team salama!!! Congrats.

Awww thanks! It's sooo exciting and makes me more excited when I read all the excellent reviews on here regarding the BBL with Dr Salama. I think im the only person travelling all the way from England just to get this done. What dates are you all booked for?

Hey Natalie, I'm scheduled for 7/15/2013 #teamsalama. Good Luck on your journey. I'm looking for a slightly earlier date as well my B-day is that week! I would hate to be in recovery at that time, but we will see what happens.

Oh wow you are the day before me. I am booked for the 16th July 2013. I know it's a long time away but have you thought about where you will be staying? Like a condo or a hotel?

I'm looking into a condo or a hotel with a full kitchen. I just want something that is clean, comfy and close to the office.

I have to say ever since I've made my decision to get the BBL with Dr Salama I have been sooo addicted to this site! I've probably read every post on here to do with the BBL. I even find myself checking this site out when Im at work. But u have to minimise the screen in case my employees wonder why I'm looking at big bootys! Lol

My 2 main concerns are that I don't have enough fat. I'm 5ft 5 and weigh 140lbs. Nancy told me this is the perfect weight for my height for this procedure but I'm not sure. Also when he did my online consultation he didn't mention I need to gain or loose any weight.
My other concern is that I have 10 hour flight on the way back. So I've decided to stay in Miami for 15days to maximise results. It sure will cost me though so if anyone is looking to share a condo at that time let me know.

A few questions I wanted to ask all you girls having the BBL is
What is your goal weight or surgery?
Do you have someone to look after you out there after the surgery?
Where's the best place to stay?

LOOONDOON! Brap brap. Jks. X-D...I'm not actually ghetto, I'm just kidding LOOOL! I'm getting mine done in May :-), nce to see another London girl takign the plunge- I have the same thoughts as you, I want to stay for two weeks to maximise the results. I'm still worried about the 8 hour flight, but I think I might have to just rely on the yoga mat trick and prevent myself from falling asleep on the flight!

By the way, in answer to your questions, my weight was deemed ideal for the surgery which is 126 lbs at 4 foot 9.3. I have a Body Mass Index of about 27. I think a BMI of between 26-27.5 is ideal for this, i.e a little overweght but not too overweight to where your health may be at risk. There are websites where you can check your BMI. Also, I spoke to Nancy about the issue of having someone here because I'm doing the surgery alone, and she says if you are going alone, its best to rent a nurse for something like $175 dollars a day for the first couple of days because you won't be able to do anything without assistance for the first few days. I've decided to rent a Condo and I am currently shopping around for the best price, but unfortunately, they are expensive- cheapest I've found is something like £400 a week, but a lot of the condos in Aventura are very nice, close to the beach and have wi-fi access, tvs etc. etc. so I personally view it as a better option than a hotel

I hope that helps! P.S the yoga mat trick in case you were wondering was where you put a yoga mat or rolled up towel or rolled up camping mat under your uper thighs and sit on that so that your butt is elevated which prevents puttign pressure on it xxxxxxxxxx

Hey, congrats on getting a date. It's is funny to be so addicted to this site you look at it from work, to then be nervous that I may get caught And accused for looking at [RS bleep]. Since that is what it may look like from a glance. Good luck on your journey to big bootiness.

As soon as I saw Brap Brap I knew you had to be from London!! Looool that's crazy we could possibly even know each other and not realise! ; ) Thank you for all your info it really had helped.  I'm hoping my boyfriend will be able to get time off work so he can come with me and look after me. But yeah I will defo be staying out there for at least 14days because of our long flight home. I wish I had a date in may as flights from the uk in July are so expensive they are like £800/£900!! You should have a look at a place called yacht club aventura they are really nice condos close to the office. Only thing now is I need to start saving as I really don't want to e out any  credit for it. So perhaps it's good the surgery is far away. Still a bit concerned as to how I'm going to explain to my employees why I can hardy sit down because I have a desk job. I will have to think of some imaginative story.

LOOOOL X-D hahaaa! IKR?! X-D I'll try looking that place up, thanks, I'll see if its any cheaper - anyways, all I'm going to say AT WORK is that I had surgery, and hope they respect my privacy- at home I'm not gonna say a damn thing except 'Ive been excercising'! xxxxxxxxxx

This is probably a long shot as everyone seems to want an earlier date or cancel like a month before their procedure. But I want to start preparing early do please let me know if any of you are cancelling your dates or are willing to switch. I can't afford to wait to swap closer to the time as I'm coming all the way from the UK. I pray I get a slightly early date.
