Hello all, I'm brand new to RS Just joined a few days ago although I've been looking on this site for months. So I'm having a bbl done by dr.J himself. I've been wanting a bbl since the 10th grade and I'm elated that my day is actually coming. I'm excited about having a date scheduled although its 7 months away(jan 22 2014). I'm trying to get it paid off so that I can be added to the fast track list have my date moved up. I'm not really happy with my body at all. I don't think that I've ever been. I hope that after the procedure I can look at myself in the mirror and finally like what I see at far as my body goes. I have a really pretty face but that butt just doesn't match. I've read some very inspirational posts here and I hope that this will be a good place for support for me as well. My family did not agree with the surgery at first but now my mom,dad,sis, and big cousin/sis(she's lived with us most of her life) support me because they know I really want it done. It's just hard for me to talk to them because they don't know much about the procedure and they really don't know what to say. I have a 2 year old son, he's my everything! His dad and I are not together. I work full time and go to school so I stay pretty busy. That's basically my story...for now.

Hello ans welcome ro RS! IM NEW ALSO and i have met a lot of positve and supportive sisters and thats great for someone like myself who is on this journey alone. No siblings and my family all n south are against my decision. I will be having my surgery july of 2014 if not sooner due to im trying to pay it all off myself since dr j 's financing only covers the first three THOUSAND DOLLARS. Lets stay connected ans congratulations on your decision to do something for yourself! Michelle is my patient consultant ans she is great! Are u just getting a bbl!

Hey sexeeangel, nice to meet you! How long have you been wanting to get the procedure done? My fam was originally against the idea as well but when they noticed that this was something that I've always wanted and have made up my mind on this they now accept it. I'm sure your fam will eventually come around. My consultant is Sarah and she's great as well. I am only getting a bbl. Sarah recommended that I get a TT but I plan on having more kids so that would be a waste of money. I agree that we should stay connected. Again nice to meet you hun!!!

Hey hun,Yes I had a phone consult with Sarah in April. I sent pics before the consult so that he could review them. Sarah is really great and she answered all my questions. I still want to talk to him in person, I will meet with dr. J the day before surgery so that I can show him specifically what I want.

Thanx! I'm excited for you as well. I know that he emphasizes that he can not recreate someone else's body but I think that I have realistic expectations...I hope?

Review of consultation

So my consultation was in April 4. Sarah is my coordinator (she's great!). It was scheduled for 2:30pm and had a 2 hr window. It was about 4:40pm CST and I hadn't receieved a call. So I called the office and the lady that answered was very polite and apologetic and she said someone will get me a call right back. About 5-7 mins later Sarah called. She was very nice and professional and she apologized that they were busy and was running behind. She went though a lot of info with me about the procedure and she answered any questions I had thoroughly. When I was done speaking with her she asked if I wanted to speak with dr j and I said I don't even need to because she answered everything and I will have a pre op *of course* in person the day before surgery. So that's when I want to talk to him about the specifics that I want, talk to him about ensuring my safety and health, and my recovery. Although I have realistic goals and I know I won't be perfect I want to make sure he has a detailed view of what I want and what I don't want. That's why I'm going to wait until the pre-op so it can be fresh in his mind!!! #Icantwaitimobsessing#
