I've always had an apple shape and hated it!...

I've always had an apple shape and hated it! Thicker mid section, inverted V booty, big boobs.. Ugh. I'm longing for more of a feminine hour glass figure with a nice round booty!! I'll be getting my tummy lipo'd along with my flanks and pubic mound. I was going to get a tummy tuck too, but decided to wait and see because of finances.. If I end up getting my dream results from a BBL, but end up with loose saggy skin, I'll do the tummy tuck later!!
My pre op appointment is in 5 days (April 12) and my surgery date is April 20th!! It's coming up so soon and I couldn't be more excited!!!
I'm really really hoping for a dramatic change.. I like how the Doctors in Miami do it.. A nice little waist and they aren't afraid to shove in the CCs!!! I'm hoping for at least 1000-1200 in each cheek, and that's the MINIMUM!

I can't stop looking at butts. All day, everyday. Googling butts, looking at people's butts as they walk by, and even got an app so I can make my butt look bigger Hahahaha

I DID IT!!!!

Today is day 3 post op. I had my BBL with Dr. Governe on wed (4-20) and I've been recovering at home the best I can! OUCH!! Lipo totally feels like you got hit by a bus.. But my results so far are AMAZING. I'm still really swollen and I feel like I weigh 1000 pounds.
Rewind to surgery day. I got there at 7:50 am. Went to the "recovery room" where he marked me all up. I gave him my last words "channel your inner JLo booty, I want a big one!" And then the anesthesia guy came in and did my IV. After that, I walked in to the operating room, layed down, the guy said he was going to insert the cocktail... And BOOM I was out!! I woke up 4 hours later and I'm the recovery room where I waited for my husband. I was in pain as I woke up, I really wish they would have given me something to get me home but thankfully I brought a Norco with me just in case. The norcos are supposed to be taken 1 every 4 hours but I'm taking 1 every 2 hours. The dr said that's fine!!
I think he said he took almost 5 liters out and put 1400cc in each cheek!!!! ????????????????????????????????????

wow.. you look great! can you be more specific about the pain - is it more soreness and stiffness than actual pain? how was your ride home.. did you sit on a boppy or ? you appear to be moving around so well... congrats and i will keep following to see how the swelling comes down. Can you tell me what your height and weight was the day of surgery? My BBL is not until Jan 2018 in Miami. Just want to get different perspectives on pain.

Thank you! The pain is... Painful... Think bruises.. Very tender all over. My butt and thighs are hard and feel bruised, my stomach and sides feel soft and bruised. I can tell I'm full of water! Stay on top of your meds the first couple days and get the sleeping pill!! Make sure you have someone there to help you do everything.. Going pee the first day was impossible without my husband there to help. Day 3 and it's better. I'm able to get my garment down by myself, squat to the potty, slowly sit, and pee.. But he needs to be there to help pull the body shaper up. Lots of slow motion.. I feel pretty weak still. I'm doing little things around the house only. Don't over do it!! Take it slow!!
I'm 5'7 and weigh 185 before surgery. I weighed myself today and I've gained 10 lbs!!! That's all water weight and swell.. So just brace yourself for that.
The pain is nothing you can't handle!! You will be miserable but it's short lived and every day you'll feel better!!

one more question on cost - did the cost include everything or just the surgeon fee?
April 22, 2016
The cost was included my pre op, post op appointments, surgery, surgical garment, that's about it.... I went home right after the surgery so no hotels, nurses, food, and massages like in Miami!! That would be nice though!!! I'm going to search around for masseuses who do lymph massages.. Apparently that really helps with the swelling and recovery!
