Hello to all of you ladies considering this...

Hello to all of you ladies considering this procedure. I have been on this website ever since I decided to go ahead with my surgery. I am a mother of 3 and am not having any more children. I have always wanted to do something to enhance the appearance of my stomach and waist. I used to be a size 0 before kids and although i in no way want to be that size again, i want to have a smaller waist and flatter stomach. After much research i decided to pay Dr. M a visit. I don't know how serious I was when I actually went to see him. None the less I made my appointment, paid my $100 consultation fee and went with my husband to my consultation. I arrived a little early and witnessed a patient leaving her post opp appointment in some pain. Kinda freaked me out a little. My husband and I looked at each other and said "RUN!!!" We walked in, sat on the couch and filled out the paper work. Angel is my patient coordinator and she was very sweet and welcoming. The girls in the office were also really sweet. I was escorted to the room and left my husband on the couch. I took some pictures and waited to see the famous Dr. M. he greeted me and was very relaxed, laid back, confident, nice, funny...all the things I like in a doctor. He contoured my body on a screen and I of course LOVED my new shape. Of course, this is just a photo but I was still very happy with the possibility of what i could look like after surgery. I initially wanted to go in for just lipo or a tummy tuck but the doctor said i do not have any loose skin to do a tummy tuck. Then he explained what the BBL was and i thought "why not" I could definitely use a bigger but and loved the idea. The doctor left the room and my husband was brought in to speak with Angel and decide on date, pricing...etc
My husband and I asked all of our questions and decided to talk it over and not make a decision right on the spot. In NO way did we ever feel pressured to set a time, date or leave any kind of deposit. On the way home i told my husband I really wanted this surgery but wanted his OK since it was a costly surgery. I always wanted to do something but felt guilty spending this type of money on something so vaine. I decided I was worth it and the more I wait for the years to pass the less I am going to want to do it. I am 32 years old and my life is my children. I do everything for them and i feel its time to do something for me. I emailed Angel and we decided on a date. April 29 it is!!!

Just got an email from Angel regarding a package they will be sending me giving me all the information regarding the surgery, vitamins to take and garment info!!! Can't wait to get it and look through it.

Got my package in the mail today! A little scary I must admit. They reiterate the potential dangers of the surgery. One of the reasons I never went thru all of this is because i have three small children and don't want anything to happen to me while i am under. I know they have to cover their a*@ but it makes it so real to read all about it. Trust me when I tell you I have done plenty of research and i am aware of all the risks, I just dont like reading it over and over. In the packet was information on the surgery, how long it will take, when i will be fitted for my garment (which is the day of my pre opp). They recommend you purchase 2 garments!! I know they're expensive so i am not looking forward to that. Also some care instructions and how many times you will visit the dr after your surgery etc. It was very informative. All i do is read stories and look at all the before and after pics of all you ladies that have gone through this.
