Weight Loss Journey for Optimal Bbl & TT Results - New Date confirmed 11/18/13...YAYYYY!!!- Suwanee, GA

Hey again. I wasn't sure how this stuffed posted so I made the 1st one very short. So I have been stalking this site for over a year. I initially had a phone consultation set up with dr. Jimerson January 2012 but had to cancel. The desire was still haunting me so I rescheduled and saw him on 10/11/12. Valerie was great. She was very sweet. Actually the whole staff was. The office is very upscale and cozy. Dr. Jimerson came in after Valerie took all of the pictures and asked all of the questions. He was very nice & professional. He gave me a very honest assessment of my body. I asked him if I could just get lipo on my stomach or would I need a TT. He said in order to get a flat stomach I would need a TT. The stretch marks would still be there and the skin would not retract because of the stretch marks. He also stated that my hips fall a little flat so he suggested fat transfer to my hips. I told him I work out & run a lot. I would like to lose weight but Valerie didn't think I should because I would need fat for the bbl. He looked at me up and down then suggested I lose 15-20lbs. He said that would give me optimal results. I also asked about upper bra roll and inner thigh. He wasn't convinced about the inner thigh. He suggest we wait until after the weight loss. The upper bra roll, he said should be done because once he lipos the flanks and lower back it would be more pronounced. I truly appreciated his assessment & honest evaluation.

Then later that month he was on TI & Tiny. I called the next work day and the lines were busy. I finally reached Azizza a few days later. She remembered me from the office. She gave me so many compliments :0). She told me at that time that his prices would be going up in Feb 2013. So I needed to put my deposit down in order to hold my quote. I called back early Nov set my date for March 18th and paid my deposit...woohoo!!!

I've been even more obsessed with this surgery. I've only told I friend that I am doing this. She is so excited that she wanted to come take care of me...I love her! I will tell my mom & dad (who live with me) & daughter about a month out. I will put my time off request in at work at the end of the month.

My goal is to lose about 20lbs total by my preop appt date which is 2/27/13. Which will take me to about 150lbs. That way he can tell me if I should lose more or stay there. Well this is all for now. I will post as relevant information/events come up. I am so excited!!!!!

Today I learned a collegemate of mine passed away. It has me thinking about this procedure & the possible dangers...is it worth it? While I know ppl have come through it fine all the time, I'm just thinking about the what ifs. I know this feeling will pass and I will be excited again. I know this is random lol. It was just something on my mind. Have a great day my bbl sisters!
