I am 46 years young and have been wanting lipo on my abdomen and love handles for several years now. Because I have children I had to postpone my dreams. A few months ago I started researching and stumbled upon this website. It was at this time I became of the BBL. I have been going back and forth in my mind about wanting a BBL. My butt is ok now but it could stand to have a little more projection. On the other hand I dont want my butt too big. After much deliberation and seeing all of the reviews, I have decided to go with the BBL. I will be going with Dr Llorente at New Life Cosmetics. So far my experience with Yuli has been pleasant. I am excited and nervous about the upcoming procedure. I dont know how I feel about not being able to sit on my butt for at least 2 weeks lol. I have booked my flights and my apartment so I am all set to go. Wish me luck girls!

Since my bf is coming with me I decided to get my own place. I found a nice apt on the beach on airbnb.com for less than $100/day.
December 18, 2015
I was looking at those to but everything I found was 15 mins away my mom is coming with me. I was kind of nervous to get an apt though due to not wanting to mess up other people's property due to all the bleeding.

I am about miles away. I am bringing LOTS of chucks to keep things clean. There is a laundromat in the apartment complex if I need it.

The 2 weeks of no sitting will go by quickly. Week 1 your going to sleep the week away. Then week 2...you'll probably start using your pillow...takes some getting use to...but honestly Im so use to the BBLpillow that I dont know how to drive or sit without it! Take advantage of their sale!!

I just left the website. I will probably order it along with my other supplies tonight. I want to order an extra garment but I dont know what kind they use or what size to get. I know the first one will get soaked with blood.

Im sure your drs office will tell you if you ask...so you can order your 2nd garment early. Theres a garment store at Lithonia mall and Discover mills. Not sure of the store name...might b easier than shopping online

I have asked her twice and she has only replied that I can buy one there for $160. I will definitely check out the store in Stonecrest Mall. Thanks for the info!!

43 days and counting.....

I am 43 days from my surgery. I am not nervous yet but I am sure I will get nervous as the date gets closer. I ordered most of my supplies from Amazon and I got my vitamins from Walmart. I still want to get an extra faja so I will check out some local stores. I really dont want to buy it from the surgery center. I am excited and keep imagining how I will look afterwards. I want to lipo more than anything and I dont want my butt too big. Does anybody know how far in advance I can get my labs done. I have an appt with my dr for Jan 7th. If my hemo is low I will have time to get it up before the surgery. I also just realized that my sx date is the weekend of the superbowl. I dont think I have ever watched the superbowl without drinking liquor :-(

I haven't purchased an extra garment yet either. My Dr uses the Leonisa one they have on Amazon for $30 and I would get one but have no idea what size...? This is the one he uses (he puts you in a binder till your post op then provides this Leonisa as part of his package, with the bbl pillow?) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I4ZGKZC/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1CGTB257H4ATG&coliid=I26M92IP5GHEUQ&psc=1

Counting Down

Less than a month away and I am starting to get excited. I had my labs drawn yesterday and everything was great except my hemoglobin which was 11.6. I am thinking I need to be at 12. I am still waiting for my consultant to get back with me. Anyone know what level I should be at?
