Plastic surgery has changed my life!

I know this might be controversial, as this site is supposed to be for weight loss without the help of the knife, but plastic surgery has changed my outlook on my life and my body.

I am a mom of 2, I breastfed each kid for almost a year, so I always knew after I was done with kids I would get a boob job to get things "back in place". In april I decided to go ahead and do it, and while I was at it I got some lipo done on my belly to get rid of the muffin top.

I did a lot of research about lipo, and I was (still am) terrified of reports that say that if you gain the fat back it comes back with a vengeance, and I told myself that was not going to be me. Plus I was EXTREMELY happy with the results, it was a major confident boost so I set myself to do everything I can to maintain those results.

Once I recovered from my surgery I started the sona med spa diet. Essentially low calories, very little carbs or sugars, no dairy, high protein diet, with some supplements. It has always been difficult for me to loose weight, so I knew I needed extra help. I use MFP to track my cals/nutrients.

At first I couldn't exercise, but once I got the go ahead from my doc I started walking at first and now I am working out 5 out of 7 days a week, and I find myself for the first time in my life excited about going to the gym and WANTING to exercise.

6 weeks have passed and I have lost 10 lbs, I feel great, have lots of energy, and love the reflection looking at the mirror. I am almost back to my pre-babies weight and pants that I haven't been able to wear in 4+ years now fit (tight, but fit!)

I still have a way to go, but I am really hoping that this is a true life changing event, and that I can keep it up.

I have 2 more weeks of the more restrictive diet, and then I can start adding dairy and carbs in moderation. I will still track my calories, and I am hoping even then I can still loose the few pounds I have to my goal weight.
