Y’all, i shouldve did the bbl after weight loss surgery.... my ass is flattering out and it hurts if i sit for prolonged time... guess I’ll be getting a bbl and a breast lift next year if i can’t plump the booty back up!

Hey Sweetie I had a sleeve in 2014 and it definitely is not a weight loss fix because believe it or not u can gain the weight right back after u are able to eat more food. So please take care of yourself and watch what and how you eat. Once u feel yourself getting full which will be very quickly stop eating. You dont want to throw up or have dumping syndrome. Stay away from sugar its the devil lol it will put weight back on you with the quickness. Your going to lose alot of weight so you more than likely will have to get another BBL but maybe not if you do the right exercises for your butt. Happy healing and stay safe!

Thank you so much keekee! The booty is already gone lol! Im scheduling another bbl for next year just incase i cant build it back up to look decent. I do understand the weight gain part with the sleeve, it happened to my cousin. She thought she could still eat some of the same foods but in smaller portions. If your mind is not ready to change, your body will definitely revert back. Im committed to the lifestyle change and eating habit change. I no longer eat just because foods are there. I eat to get my protein in and then i stop once i get that tight feeling in my chest or when i feel full. My stomach was very small so my surgeon thinks once i start exercising more, i will be okay. We shall see!

Just so you know when you get your next BBL you have to wait 6-8 weeks before sitting on your butt again otherwise your butt is always going to flatten out due to the fat that was placed being squished in that position when you sit. Good luck in the future!

I went in for my sleeve on 8/12 and i was the first surgery of the day. My surgeon and everyone at the clinic and recovery home gave me A-1 treatment. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!! My dr told me my stomach was small and I had a hiatal hernia that he repaired for me. Other than that tight pull feeling in my side, i feel great and have lost 5lbs since surgery.

Congrats girl! I am having the sleeve surgery in October. I originally wanted to get the bbl done 2 years ago but I knew the sleeve was a better, healthier alternative. Fortunately my insurance is paying for it but boy do you have to go thru the ropes for it! Wishing you the best on your recovery!

Oh yes, insurance will make you jump through fire lol! But tbh if my insurance paid for mine, i would’ve done that. You made the right decision though, i just wish i did wls first then the bbl because now my booty is getting flat lol!!! Congrats on your date hun, i wish you a great recovery!!

Are you familiar with the insurance process with putting in claims for surgical procedures? I put in a claim after I had my surgery in Dec.2019 and i've been denied I guess twice now despite me sending in paperwork that I needed an abdomnioplasty.

Tuesday I have my sleeve surgery and I am ecstatic!!! I am so glad that the 2 week liquid diet is almost over, i barely made it through. I never thought i would day this but I am soooooo sick of sweet drinks!!! I lost 13lbs on the diet so I went from 235 to 222 and my post op goal weight is around the 140-155 range. I just pray i dont have a lot of loose skin!!!!
