Hello Bootiful Ladies, Not much new to report....
WORTH IT$14,600
Hello Bootiful Ladies,
Not much new to report. I have been trying to start my exercise routine but given my busy life, I have not been as consistent as I do not feel like getting out of bed at 5:00a.m. So I listen to my body. I work out like 1 time a week (if even that) for about 20 minutes. I have not bought the foam/board yet, but think I am going to get it and get a small size garment. I hope I haven't missed the boat on that one. I didn't purchase the smaller garment before because I was afraid to lose more of my hips, and I did not want to look like a teenager. I like nice hips with a tiny waist so I am trying to get my waist back down to a 24 - 25 inches (before kids). I haven't measured my hips and waist yet because I need to get a measuring tape. (I know lame)... Just been so busy. However, I finally purchased some bras and they measured me at a 34D - 34DD, so I am wearing a 34DD! ; ))
Obviously, I'm still wearing the garment... I don't always wear it 23 hours a day. I get so tired of it, I wear it during the day (depending on what I wear) and take it off to sleep. I sometimes do not wear it during the course of the weekend. I want to let it all hang out! But I don't always like the way I look without it. You get used to the way the garment molds your body and when u take it off, it's not the same. Sometimes I think round two...But still Love and am enjoying my bootiful body! How long did you ladies wear your garment?
I haven't had my follow up with Dr. J - from the 6 weeks - they reached out but I have been so busy to even try to schedule a time for an appointment. I do have visible scarring. I tend to keloid so it's more noticeable. Will have to follow up with a dermatologist pronto. I am trying to upload pics but I'm having trouble with the ones sent from my phone so if I can't get them up today, maybe mañana. Ok ladies, talk to you later. XoXo

Message From Dr. Jimerson: Hello my Lovelies, I...
Message From Dr. Jimerson:
Hello my Lovelies, I have been MIA for quite some time... I apologize for those I have not responded to... I have been busy with work, kids, projects, enjoying life and enjoying my results. I had my 6 week Post-Op telephonic appointment with Dr. J at maybe 7 weeks Post-Op. Although, it was scheduled for 1/30/2013 I didn't receive a call until the following week. In any event, Dr. J said I was looking Great. He asked how I felt about my results and I hesitantly told him that although I really liked my new shape and results, I felt I had lost a lot of my volume. Dr. J then said, "Oh you have that Booty Greed!". LOL... I did mention to him that I had to stop looking at the blogs for a while because there were some girls who were "48 inches and still holding strong" and I'm not even 38 inches. Well to be honest I have not measured myself. So we can go crazy comparing ourselves to others results when my body will most probably not look good with a 48 inch booty. Dr. J kept insisting and said "you know, you have a body better than most 18 year olds". I did tell him my Blog's title was 40's are the New 20's. He said, "that's what I'm saying!" In any event, we were on the phone for about 45 minutes and I did give him and his staff props, especially the anesthesiologist, Sharway(sp?) Jenkins, whom he later gave the phone to and I was able to acknowledge personally. I did inform Dr. J though of my disappointment that I did not see him at my post op appointment. That was the reason why I went to him in the first place and not Salama who was one of the Dr.s I was looking at, but decided against because there were complaints that he didn't really take time to see his patients after the surgery. I also, informed him that it is difficult to get through his office, when we have issues that need to be addressed immediately, we will probably receive a call the following week, because sometimes you can't even speak with someone from the office, usually I am talking to the message service. Dr. J apologized and he said that he is aware of these problems and he is doing what he can to address this. He says that just like Salama, his practice grew overnight and they are in the process of figuring out what would be the best solutions, whether it is bringing a new partner to do some of the work, and more staff. He indicated that sometimes he is trying to figure out what patients would prefer, given that he is only one person and the time constraints. He asked me to pass on this message, that he is trying to do his best to work this out because he wants us to be happy. He also indicated that he will be putting out a suggestion box somewhere on his site for those of you who have any suggestions.
My Milkshake Brings the Boyz to the Yard & The Shack Attack:
Although like many BBL sisters whom I believe have amazing results but are still thinking about having a round two...I'm feeling the same way. I told a couple of my friends that I was thinking of doing round two because I felt my volume went down a bit, they're like "Oh honey, no! That's enough!" This looks good, you don't want to look too overdone. For the most part it's positive feedback, but of course you do have those haters (women) who unfortunately behave like they are back in high school. I'm sure you guys know what I mean. There was one Partner in the office who was looking for a pen in the kitchen for about 10 minutes while I was on break talking with my friend. I told the Partner, "You are not gonna find a pen here in the Kitchen!" My friend said, see what you are doing to these men " you have him looking for a pen in the Kitchen". I refused to believe I was the reason but he insisted, that this was coming from a man's perspective.
Also, the first week I arrived from GA from surgery, I had someone from my local park stop and ask me to be a part of a Fitness Contest. I told him that I would Love to do it, but towards the end of the year (because of my surgeries I can't do this right away) since I had participated in BodyBuilding competitions before and had been thinking about participating in the near future. Apparently, he only holds the competitions once a year at the end of March). Well, he continued to insist that I do this competition at the end of March but besides having too much on my plate already, I am not willing to compromise my investment.
Just recently Schack was shooting a commercial outside my office building. When I went out to scope the scenery out and we locked eyes, Shack was checking a sista out!!!! I mean, he was giving me the look... One of his people came over to get my information. They thought the friend I was with was my "friend". I also got a chance to meet him and take a picture with him and we talked for a bit but very soon other people started to crowd around him for his autograph and picture & I had to get back to work and that was that.
Baby Daddy:
When Baby Daddy saw me for the first time after dropping my daughter off back to me, he forgot he had a fiancé. All of a sudden he started talking about our daughter making comments that we should be married. He also had the balls to ask if he could be the first to try out this new body. Little did he know that he would not have been the first had I even been remotely interested... which I wasn't and of course I inquired wouldn't his fiancé be offended by this and he had the balls to say that he wasn't engaged that he had never been!!! That he was just trying to get under my skin! He denied it! Ladies I tell ya...Men!!!! Then later he tells me that he was no longer engaged but he didn't want our daughter to know yet...whatever! At another time, we attended our daughter's play and as he was leaving he gave me a hug and kiss good-bye (on the cheek I would only give him the cheek) then he reached under my winter coat and he grabbed my ass!!! It was a good handful too!!! Had it not been that there were other parents and children (he reached under my long winter coat so no one saw) I would have slapped his ass! Not only was it disrespectful, but he probably killed some fat cells in the process!!! That AZZZ!!!!
After dropping off my daughter at school, I was crossing the street to get to my car and I had this guy do a u -turn right in the middle of traffic and parked right behind me to get me to go out with him. Well it turned out, he was the same guy who had stopped me 4 months before, this time, in front of the school (before my surgery) and gave me his card then. It asked him if he had a habit of stopping girls in the middle of the street... As I told him that I was seeing someone, and turned around to get to my car, as he saw my new derriere, he begged "Please, let me take you out to dinner, coffee, lunch, whatever!" LOL. Men are coming out of the woodwork to express their interest...
Well ladies, all of this to say, and I am sure you ladies have similar stories, we perceive our results as not being perfect, whether its because it's not as big as we had expected, or its uneven (all of which are my case), or whatever the reason maybe. But we continue to receive confirmation that people are taking notice and appreciate the aesthetic results, especially men. This is something that we need to look at more from a mental, emotional and an internal place, rather than externally. Heck... I am still thinking Round 2. LOL! Good night my lovelies.

YAAAASSSS bish! Straight killing them with your results xoxo So happy for you :)
March 4, 2013
Hey baby girl! Thank you momma! Your looking absolutely amazing with all that BOOTY!!! I can't believe either one of us is considering a round 2!!! Seriously, you look amazing.
March 4, 2013
HAhaha, should have checked out this comment first LOL. Nothing is set in stone yet!!! But if I feel like my body can take a bigger butt and wider hips without looking overdone, I might just do it. So crazy how that booty greed creeps up XD
March 4, 2013
And I feel with you the Round Two angst, girl! We need to chat :) Perhaps we can help each other make the right decisionÂ
March 5, 2013
Absolutely we need to talk this through because I don't see you needing anything, but then again, you might be saying the same thing about me. My good friend said, "no honey you do not need to add anything or fix anything else on your body, you might need to fix your head tho"... LOL
March 5, 2013
Hahahaha! I think I need a friend like that! One that tells the truth no matter, what. I just started working out again, no cardio just weights and after each session of lunges and squats I stay in the mirror just checking out my ass. It always feels fuller a looks lil bigger. Imma stay with this exercise regimen for a bit. We'll definitely keep each other posted. And from what I can see, no! You don't need anymore. But it's not about NEED. We WANT more lmao #bootygreedysistas
March 4, 2013
U look beautiful! I want ur slim body with a heart shaped bubble as well!! Congrats again :)
March 5, 2013
Thank you Bklynbeauty! Your day will be here soon enough... Good luck on your journey. Dr. J will have you looking fabulous.
March 20, 2013
Thanks babe! I'm so anxious! While My date is 7 months away I'm concerned about dr j not being aggressive enough with lipo of full back arms n bra roll :( ill be getting my sx $ soon n about 75% sure about staying with dr j .. Actually in process of slimming down 2 135 for summer .. Dr j wants me to be 160 n I think that's 2 much n that if he is aggressive as salama/pantoja/campos/perry/duran that 150 lbs would be more than enough fat considering I'm getting full body lipo.. What do u think ? How r u feeling n has ur big booty fluffed??
March 4, 2013
Gorgeous! Fantastic blog! Really appreciate the advocacy relative to addressing the matter of administrative issues in Dr. J's office. He's doing great work, but clearly the office management situation is concerning. How cute that Dr, J used the "booty greed" connotation....he sounds very personable.
March 5, 2013
Thank you Booty4Real! Dr. J is very personable and down to earth. He is concerned about these issues and is trying to figure out a solution that will work for all involved. Much love & good luck on your journey.
March 5, 2013
Sounds good. I am liking his work. All the booties are looking and staying round. I'll continue my research, but he's at the top of my list!
March 4, 2013
I have some post-opt questions for you:
Have you started sitting normally (at the office, driving) or are you using the rolled up yoga mat or boppy pillow? If you are sitting normally, when did you start? Also, did you do the lymphatic massages? Thanks a bunch
March 5, 2013
Sometimes I use my boppy at work and at home, for sleeping. I still drive with a rolled up yoga mat. It is much more comfortable for me. I tried it one time without and I had 1 hour drive. Not comfortable... so I had to resume using the yoga mat. Yes, I used lymphatic massages started in GA. There is a great massage therapist Penny who was also a Jimerson patient and was referred to me by Dr. J's nurse, Kim. She has her business cards there. She was AMAZING! I resumed with lymphatic massages back at home but have not found someone with the same technique Penny had.

Hey love! So glad your recovery is coming along good. Your experience was a blessing. Especially having your sis there to help out. Continue to be positive. Dr. J has done it again. :-)
January 11, 2013
Thank you sweetie! I am very Blessed!!! We are very Blessed... to be in this position where we can fulfill our hearts desires!!! Thank you for sharing your journey and wisdom with all of us! XoXo
January 11, 2013
Thank you sweetie! I feel and am very Blessed! We are very Blessed to know and the ability to fulfill our desires. I thank you for your journey and all that you have shared with us BootieBeauty!
January 11, 2013
Hey love ! Thanks for sharing your journey with us! I too have chosen Dr. J for later this year. I am wondering what things did you bring that you found extremely essential and how did you lay because you had both BBL and BA (which I am also going to have)?
January 12, 2013
Welcome HourGlass! I will put a list together for you before the end of the weekend of things I bought that I remembered using. I didn't use most of it, but it also depends on the person. As to the sleeping, I wish I would have known about a Breast pillow for people who had Breast lifts or Breast augmentations which our BBL sister BootieBeauty (below - click on her profile and you will see the pillow) shared with us so you can sleep on your stomach and stay off your butt. I found out about it 2 weeks after my procedure and because I also had hips added, the way I was informed to sleep is by placing my boppy pillow in my hip area and laying on my sides, to kind of cushion it from pressing against the mattress. However, I felt that I still put pressure on the side of my butt and to be honest, I feel that is how I lost volume. I was thinking last minute of doing the procedures separately last minute as I wanted to make sure I did not hinder the results of my booty but decided to go with both anyways. Another great idea is either a 6 inch memory foam mattress (the cheapest you can find) or a smaller sized 6 inch foam the size of a couch cushion and cut out a hole according to the size of your butt by carefully tracing your booty on the cushion then cutting it out. That allowed me to lay on my back and get some relief but I left this and many other things in GA as I did not want to drag it with me. I wish I had tho. I will post a pic of this square foam later because I did take pics of it but you can also go to another resourceful BBL sister FoundUMissNewBooty's blog as this was her brilliant idea. I was thinking of telling Dr. J's office they need to create a video of different ways people can lay for different procedures and the combos. That would be very useful.
January 12, 2013
Yeah I had mentioned to the office about the foam mattress and cutting a hole into it. Great I will definitely be looking forward to you list!! How was recovery for you. And I am always curious on what it was like the day of surgery and going under since I am scared of the anesthesia. Like what was that like from the moment you got into the facility on day of surgery?
January 11, 2013
Girl you are looking great!!!
January 12, 2013
Girl Dr. J did his thing on you! you put my body to shame and Im not even 40 yet! I can only hope to look half as good as you when I get there. Happy Healing! : )
January 12, 2013
Aaawww that's very sweet of you. Thank you! Dr. J will take good care of you baby girl!!! Good luck on your journey hun.
January 12, 2013
LuxciousMindBODYnSpirit,
I am right there with you forty and luvin every minute of it. At 40 there is a renewed understanding for life and everything that we are. A different women is born at 40 for sure. You look amazing....
January 12, 2013
Greetings Inluv2! Thank you momma! Yes, well said...it is definitely a renewed understanding for life and who we are!!! I am so excited and looking forward to experiencing this part of my life because of this renewed understanding, feeling of self-confidence and the infinite possibilities that awaits when most of our resistance is out of the way while feeling, thinking and looking great!!! Thank you baby girl and good luck on your journey. XoXo
