One month away from having my dream bootay!
I'll start out by the basics. I’m full Mexican....
I'll start out by the basics. I’m full Mexican. I'm 5'3 and 145lbs. My normal weight is 125-130lbs but ever since my car accident last year, a nasty long-term relationship break-up and turning 21, I put on about 15-20lbs.
I have about almost 3 weeks of 5 days a week for 2 hours a day straight cardio and also I’m eating better. I'm not really dieting per say. I'm just more conscience of what I put in my body. I cut out all sugar completely (no wine, no soda, no candy, no treats, only fresh fruits) and I drink 2 liters of water a day. So I’m trying to get back to my normal weight. I do have ONE cheat meal within 7 days. Hey a girl sometimes wants some chicken Alfredo and a glass of Moscato haha!
I had always had problems with my body image growing up. I was a stick skinny 11-12 years old with a B cup. I grew up being made fun of for having such huge "girls" and being so skinny. Well until high school guys loved it and girls were envious. Finally I did get more meat on my bones and became super curvy not just stick thin with big girls. But in the ending of middle school beginning of high school I started noticing the flatness in the top part of my booty. It's funny because the bottom part of my booty has fat and a nice curve to it so it fits my body perfect. But just the top part of my booty, there’s no fat, no curve, no plumpness, just flatness. Then I started growing love handles too and it made my body look off (especially naked or in a bikini) But with certain clothes I’d buy I could hide it. Don't get me wrong I feel blessed for the body I have. I know it could be worse. But it took me awhile to realize that. Today I love my body and the skin I’m in. I have thin small arms. DD cup size. Nice thighs. I have zero cellulite and BARELY any stretch marks (and not on my breasts I got lucky) I just can't stand my love handles (flanks) from the back and the top FLAT part of my booty! I know if I had all those little problems fixed I can be 100% happy with my body. And come on, who doesn't want to be 100% happy with their body?! Especially if you're doing any procedures for YOURSELF. Nothing is more horrible then to change your body for someone else's happiness. If someone doesn't love you the way you are before or even after a procedure then they aren't worth you!
Any ways..
One day I was talking to one of my co-workers and I told her I've been looking into getting a BBL. I have been thinking about it ever since I was in middle school. But that recently turning 20 and then 21 this year, it's been on my mind NON-STOP! So I told her I’ve been reading into it a lot on Realself and all over the internet. She told me she was super interested in getting a BBL herself and told me she had found a doctor on the internet. That she's a doctor from Salt Lake City but that she also has a little office down in our city and comes once or twice a month. She told me that the Dr. would even text you and let you send her pictures of your problem areas. So I had text her and she answered later in the evening but then for some reason I didn't get back to her even tho I thought I had haha. So I got a call a few days later from her assistant/nurse asking if I wanted to set up a free consultation since she'd be down at my town that day. So I ended up making the appointment and boy I am so happy I did! Dr. Allen is so beautiful and such a sweet woman. She made me feel very comfortable and she was super easy to talk to. It felt like I was talking to a close friend. Her office is small but was so homey, clean, and relaxing. She asked me first about my problem areas, what my wants and expectations were. Then she went on in telling me how she did the procedure, the risks, the recovery time, and basically everything! And I knew a few things from reading a lot on Realself so I asked and she answered all of my questions. Then I got half naked :P and she took pictures of my booty and what she imagined to do. She got me exactly. Everything that I wanted she said she could do! Also another thing I really liked was that she said that the surgery time was about 4 hours but that she’d probably take 5-6 hours to make it PERFECT! And that’s great with me because I want a doctor who wants to take their time, do things right and perfect. Not like some doctors who want to make their money, get you in and out ASAP. After that she wrote up the costs. Amazingly the price is better than I could have asked for! I still need to come up with half the money and figure out the time off cause of work. Either in March (spring break) or July (summer vacation) I’ll be for sure getting my BBL done. I’ll update when I have the full amount and the dates set for sure!
Thanks for reading and any questions just ask!
