Today reality sunk in.. I have planned for my BBL...

Today reality sunk in.. I have planned for my BBL since January of this year, and up until this point it has felt like a dream. When I decided to count how many days I have left, I think I had a mini heart attack lol. 16 days!!!! Wow, I haven't even started preparing for my big day yet. I guess its time to start grinding, ordering and planning. Alittle about me... Im 36 years old, 5'2 (on a good day, stretched out =), 139 lbs (normally 117), I have an amazing 5 year old son, who is the love of my life and also an absolute handful! I was blessed physically, I was always known as the white girl with a big booty growing up.. In my 20's I had an amazing bubble butt and a 6 pack, those were the good old days. Now I still have a pretty big butt, but since having my son, things are different, I'm just not as well put together. I have some loose skin on my stomach when I bend down, and some uneven areas in my booty. My arms have always been chubby, I have always had big thighs and hips. Everyone thinks I'm crazy to get this procedure done, they tell me your butt is already huge (43" right now). But I decided more then just being greedy and adding to my booty, I'm looking forward to re-sculpting my entire body, lets face it my metabolism has changed and I'm no spring chicken anymore, so why not have a "me" moment. I have been with my sons father for 14 years, and he likes bigggg butts lol. I have dedicated my life to my family and somewhere along the way I forgot about myself, so I guess Im considering this a moment for me. I need a re-set moment, more then just cosmetic surgery my excitement comes from taking time out of life to reprogram me, eating healthy, reading, exercising (after surgery), loving myself more. Anyways, I decided to choose a Doctor close to home, I cant imagine being away from my son for more then a few days, plus my girlfriend just had her BBL with him in January and it looks amazing. My Doctor is Joel Beck in Foster City, CA. He is such a caring and sweet man, he thinks I'm the perfect candidate for the procedure. He is doing smart lipo on my arms, back, stomach, sides, thighs, I think 7 sites in total. He uses the grafting technique to ensure that he sorts thru the good and bad fat and the fat he injects has a more likely chance of survival. I have full faith in him. I will be staying overnight in the hospital after the procedure, so that added almost $3k to my total which was $10,500. I just had my blood work done last week, and now I'm trying to get my survival gear together. Does anyone have recommendations on things that will make my journey easier? I will post a list of things that I think I need, and welcome any suggestions. I look forward to sharing my journey and once I make it thru, I will be happy to help others with theirs.

Dr Beck, work your miracle

These are some of my wish pictures. A girl can dream cant she =)

Suggestions on pillows

Does anyone have any suggestions on what pillows to use? Boppy, Sachi Organic Roll? Did anyone buy the BBL Pillow or the booty buddy? Wondering if those are worth having. Im sure I will have to sit on my thighs once in a while. Also wondering about compression socks, any good ones that RS can recommend? Thanks for all the help

I honestly felt like a won the lotto when I found Dr. Beck! When I met him for my consultation he exceeded my expectations, lets face it most girls go to Miami for a BBL. But after I learned about his experience, how he had trained with one of the top Miami BBL Doctors, that he was one of the top Lipo Doctors in the Country, I knew that I had found my Doctor. Plus the fact that his office is 5 minutes from my house was a major plus!! He is funny, smart, honest and really knows his stuff, he will keep it real with you. His staff is amazing, everyone there is so nice. I have to especially acknowledge Jasmin, she has been so available for me thru my procedure from the beginning and is still just a call away if I need anything. She is the best!! Now 8 days after surgery I am more reassured that I made the best decision, my results are amazing, and he really went above and beyond!! I would honestly say that he is the Bay Area Booty Doctor hands down!!
