BBL Train - 7 Weeks and LOVING it!

Hello fellow BBL hopefulls and pro's. I have been wanting this procedure for several years and have just come to means of doing so. I have been following Dr. Salama and his work has motivated me to take this leap. I am very hopeful and trust his art. I look forward to posting my journey as a returned favor for all those women that took the time to post theirs and allowed me to feel more grounded about my decision. I hope my information is as helpful as theirs was to me. I am scheduled to have my surgery 11/26/2012. I was lucky to call in when someone had just canceled theirs. =-) Otherwise I was looking at a couple of months!

Alright so today I received my surgery package in the mail. I'm a little saddened that I did not have the 45 day window to start the iron and vit C. I am starting them 20 days pre-op. BUTT I am a lucky sucker. I called in right after a lady had cancelled her 11/26 surgery date ( I called like on 10/22 or something like that) and viola surgery scheduled within 30 days...lucky lucky star! Okay, so since I barely got my package (coño!) I barely found out about 45 day vitamins....I saw most girls post like 2 weeks pre surgery and 45 days after surgery ....but that looked backwards and well it was! So I hope my 20 day vitamin regimen is still good ...I ordered VitaMedica Surgery Program Kit but NEED approval since I see a couple of B Named vitamins and yet his list of no no vitamins list Vitamin B, but doesnt specify if B12 and so on is the same???? I will email him to ask. The following vitamins are recommended - Vit C, Iron, Bioflavanoid, B100 B Complex Vitamins, Zinc, Arnica Montana, Bromelain. The specific dosages are in your welcome kit but I am sure MOST will have time to adhere to the rules. I was lucky or not??? to call in and catch a cancelled appointment so my ETA was much shorter. I checked out Dr. S license, degree, certifications and they all cleared ...BTW I did that like 1 year ago....I then noticed most were being told to gain weight and so I did it while also putting money away for the surgery and as you can see the rolls equal the bank account....lol. It was fun so I cant complain, although shopping and looking at my closet got depressing sometimes. I do have a QUESTION for you all POST OP ladies, I work sitting down in an office envirment? How did you guys manage? I will be back at work on 16th day after surgery....so I am like???? Also it says to RECLINE and not lay flat??? But Reclining requires you to sit on your botton, do they mean to lie stomach down but pillows on your chest area so you are like a snake? PLEASE ANSWER POST OP BBL SISTERS. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

Okay as you can see I also posted pre-op pics that are recent and one year ago (sigh with longing) picture from my skinny but ass-less days. I want my waist back but you see my hand resting on my LOVE handle. Shoot no matter how thin I was that POT handle was ALWAYS there and thanks to the NO BUTT, it would look awfull with a tight dress or jumpsuits....ggggrrr. BUTT im sure Dr. Salama will give me what my mamma didnt give me. =) Oh another note....I discontinued my birth control patch and hope I dont get my period during the surgery week. Based on patch schedule my period was going to be due 11/21....I dunno how much taking off the patch will distort that schedule. I am just PRAYING that I am not on my period then.....I hope wearing a tampon is allowed and that the menstruation wont interfere with my surgery. I havent read anything to inficate otherwise but I am asking along with Vitamin approval.

SO to wrap things up, please advise on 'reclinning position' and working in an SIT down office enviroment. Thank you señoritas
