Finally have my dream body!! - Ellicott City, MD

Hey ladies! Just joining this forum today, and I must say how I LOVE reading about your experiences, your support for each other and seeing your fantastic results. You are all so beautiful and so refreshing with your honest, sweet, and funny posts on the BBL forum.

So here's a little about me, I'm 22, Hispanic, no kids, full-time student, bartender, and I live on my own in MD next to my school. I've been doing TONS of research on this procedure for quite some time now, and I must say.....WOW. I never could have thought that one procedure could give you a crazy body like that. Anyways, I want it! It won't be my first surgery either..had a breast augmentation done last year in July. I couldn't be happier with them, but now I want a butt! I never had a small waist or a flat tummy, but I always worked out and ate healthy...nothing really helped. When I was a child, I was EXTREMELY heavy. I always played soccer, so I guess that helped me lose most of it. But I knew from that point on I will NEVER have a pretty little waist like all my skinny friends had. Luckily, I thinned out in high school..but still my tummy suffered a lot from my childhood experience. I always kinda had a butt, but nothing extravagant. I'd turn heads everywhere I go, but then I started college. You guessed it..freshman fifteen. I put on a lot of weight..not exactly 15 pounds..more like 30. I'm fortunate that I work out and and am able to keep everything nice and semi-tight...and from there, my thighs, hips and my butt GREW! HUGE! AMAZING! lol And that weight gain unlocked my booty potential...and actually I feel better than in high school. It was until I lost about 15 pounds that my butt and hips started to go down...and I missed it dearly. I didn't feel so healthy with all that extra weight (plus, my belly was yuck!), but I desperately want that booty back.. that booty that all Hispanic girls are supposed to have...and those hips!! I want it all with the with little waist and tummy.

I've invested some time into your stories and results, and I really do think that this procedure will give me that body I've always wanted. You all have such inspiring stories, and help each other out so much and I have absolutely NO ONE to talk to about this. I'm afraid of being judged by my family and by my friends. I'm actually planning on telling no one (besides you guys, of course..you're cool)..and going on a brief hiatus from all my family and friends while I recover from surgery and to try and hide the new arse. hehe

As excited as I am, I am EXTREMELY nervous about going under the knife again, but being that I had such a pleasant experience the first time..I figured why not!! Plus, I am REALLY good with pain. I kick-box and spar with my older brother, and I can take quite a beating!! Also, I know that every body is different. Everyone has a different shape and size, different healing, and different results, so I know that I may end up disappointed with my results or they won't meet my expectations. Doing my research, I feel that I based my opinion on doctors through their years of experience. I've researched Salama, Soto, Jimerson, and Markmann, and met them all!! I've gone all around, and I've set my heart on Markmann. He's very experienced in this type of surgery, and the results that he gives his patients are absolutely stunning. He guarantees that if I follow his post-op instructions and refrain from sitting for at least 3 weeks, I would be able to retain at least 80% of the fat injected into the buttocks. He sculpts beautiful waistlines and tummies, leaves virtually no scars, and gives you that big, juicy, voluptuous booty that we all want.. and it stays! I've also read about a lot of his BBL patients on here, and they said he's worth every penny. So the date is set, and I've paid half of my surgery already.
As far as my stats go:
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 170lbs
Bust: 41"
Waist:32"
Hips: 43"

I need tips on what to buy to make my recovery as easy as possible! Please help! And is anyone else going to Markmann in August?! I need a butt buddy! lmbo

So yesterday was my surgery, and notice that my review says "Not Sure" if the procedure was worth it or not. I spent so much money on this procedure that I wanted so badly...now I can't stop crying, thinking that I made the worst decision of my life. I had a nice body..I just wanted to make it better like all of you guys who got amazing results...now, I look like a cow, everything swollen and I can hardly move. I was in the recovery room for 6 hours, WAITING for my room to be ready. The hospital fees included an overnight stay, and they were dying to get me out. Feeling super sensitive about the whole situation, I started to get my things ready, BALLING MY EYES OUT. Seriously the worst day ever for me.

So it's day 2, and I can't help to be upset that I basically got kicked out of my room yesterday..never even got a phone call from the doctor, not even a visit!! One of the nurses ( the only male one) said he spoke with Markmann and since I was up and about that I should be getting ready to go! I was starting to choke up right there omg..I really didn't want to have to ask anybody to take care of me. Honestly, I'm so independent, and it KILLS me that I had to ask my poor bf to take care of me. All I wanted to do is stay in the hospital for just a couple more hours to get myself mentally prepared to deal with this recovery. Thank goodness for my awesome bf.
As for results, I can see HUUGE hips, no difference in the butt area, and a teeny tiny waist kinda... I blabbing and extremely emotional, so I'll stop. Sorry guys. I'll update later.
