BBL done with Salama in April 2014- Aventura, FL

Lourdes, Grace, & Heidi ... the amazing women from the recovery house. You guys literally saved me during this time. I'm telling you, if you can go to the recovery house, you should! These women literally kept me sane, helped me physically, cooked for me, cleaned for me, they were my everything during this surgery and healing process! Lourdes, Grace, and Heidi ... thank you so much! You women are just tooo amazing!

Hey guys,
Haven't finished really been good at keeping up the blog, but just wanted to throw in an update/review. I had the surgery about 4 days ago. I am currently staying at the recovery house to getting better.
Girls, if you have a chance the best thing I would recommend for you is to stay at the recovery house. No joke. They provide everything for you and the pain after surgery is serous. It's no joke. You will bleed all over the place, your sheets, everything. I'm glad that I'm post-surgery and currently getting better.


Surgery day was so nerverecking. Basically they drew all over my body, took pictures, I showed Dr. Salama my wish pics, and we discussed what I wanted. But they put me under and I woke up in pain. Justin, the driver, drove me to the recovery house. BTW, the driver is really nice. Girls, the pain is for real. It's intense. But slowly and surely you will get better. But DON"T try and do this alone. Serously. You can't recuperate by yourself. That's why if you're coming in alone, I'll suggest the recovery house. I can't imagine doing this alone in a hotel room. there's no way. I'm satisfied with my results. He did a good job sculpting my body. I'm still in shock that I did this ... and I'm glad I did this. He's a good doctor and you are in good hands with his staff.

It's so easy to get caught up in the bull sh** of everyday life. I mean, I have my job, I have commitments which take up a lot of time, & manage to annoy me to no end. At times, I think, 'Life sucks ..." but in reality I am blessed because I actually have a chance to change the things I dislike about myself. The MAIN thing I've always disliked and tried to hide was my ass ... or like of :P. When I was a teen, I had a very hour glass shape. And I've somehow lost it becoming all boobs & tummy with little hips & a flat ass. My unhappiness with it isn't about me wanting to impress everyone, I actually don't really care what anyone has to say about my body. And I live in a tight knit community where people tell you what they think. Ok ... not entirely true. They don't mean to be hurtful, but I've had friends say thing like, "Yes well she actually looks good dancing because she has hips...." with me being in the comparison. It's not meant to be hurtful ... it's just the truth being vocalized & me being overly sensitive about my body. But I'm doing this for myself. Can you tell .. .LOL? I say "I" a lot in these posts :P. And that's the big picture ... doing this to be happier and to actually feel happy about the way that I look. With that said, I haven't even begun planning for this thing. Financially ... yes. But logistics ...nope. Financially I've began planning by being more frugal. That is, I pack my lunches, don't shop as much ... ect. I mean, what's more important ... an F21 shopping spree or having a body I'm proud of? Does anyone know how long those drains stay in you for? I've been seeing those post pics. Nice results for sure. But man..... those drains kindof freak me out.
