In 11 days I'll be getting a BBL by Dr. Mendieta!...

In 11 days I'll be getting a BBL by Dr. Mendieta! I've had numerous surgeries in the past (2 breast lift/augs, mini tummy tuck w/lipo) but finally I'm gonna do something about my non-existent booty. My girlfriend had BBL surgery by him 1.5 yrs ago & she looks amazing!! Once I saw her results (and his website gallery), I knew he was the one. I had my consult back in March & scheduled surgery for 2 months later. Being nearly 5'2" and typically weight is 104 (I'm very active & fit) I knew I needed to gain weight for this procedure. When I went to my consultation I was up to 118. Dr M said no more working out & I needed to gain about 5-7 pounds more. So I'm now at 126. Good enough! Yesterday was my pre-op appt. got all my scripts and ordered a garment from them. In the meantime I've stocked up on all the items needed (and then some!). I've got my room booked, 2 weeks off of work, and my DH on-board! Here are some pics of me at my lower weight range. I'll update with more recent (chubbier!) ones tonight. Wish me luck fellow BBL sisters!

Preop Pics - Current weight 125 ish

Ok, here are some pics taken last night showing my total weight gain. I will stay at this weight until surgery next Tuesday, May 20. After that, I'll go back to clean eating and whatever Dr. M doesn't suck out, I will lose naturally over a couple months.

Advice from BBL Vets?

I am curious about something & hoping any BBL vets could shed some light? How is everyone getting post lipo massages? What I mean is technique. If we can't sit or lie down on our backsides for 2 mos post surgery, how do you get lipo massages done without ruining your results?! Did you only lay on your stomach? That doesn't seem effective! I've had Synergy massages done previously when I had lipo/mini TT (14 days post op) and they helped tremendously with swelling & to smooth the abdomen. I'm just trying to get a visual. Thanks!
