This is exatly what BuffMother! is trying to over come. This doctor playing off the myth that you can not be buff after having kids. He is basically saying that this woman had done all she could through diet and exercise (which is obviously false). She could have made vast improvements to "bulge" without turning to the knife.
I beg you...if you are thinking about having surgery to rid your body of your tummy bulge, make sure you do everything in your power through diet and exercise berfore you have your body cut apart.
You can be Buff after having children!-Michelle
I work with a girl who just had this procedure and a boob job. I saw her last week with a bag that looked like she went Halloween candy shopping and it was just for her. It had a full sized bag of Hershey's kisses, bag of Reese's, Spree, and two Slim Fast bars. Go figure. She wasted her money anyway. I see her working out now and then but if she doesn't eat right she is going to be worse off. I work where we have to wear a uniform and she just last week got a bigger belt. Her surgery wasn't over two months ago.

Amen to that!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree 100% with you!
Give exercising and dieting a chance! It's a lot more beneficial for you AND the results that you will reap from it is self-rewarding and will more then likely be "long term" because you are making exercising/healthy eating a life long habit....liposuction is EXPENSIVE and TEMPORARY! Your bulging problem will come back with poor diet and exercise.
Arggggggg it's all about $$$$$$ these days!
I'm a mother a young mother of one, and even I thought I was never going to regain my pre-pregnancy body back, BOY WAS I WRONG!!! In less then two weeks, I'll be competing in my very first Figure Competition!!!!! To all your skeptics out there, all I can say is "HA! I told you I could do it!" AND SO CAN YOU!
Hugs,
Carole
p.s. btw, this is my first post on your blogger, and you obviously can tell that I'm a little upset about these doctors pushing plastic surgery :-)
By the way, YOU LOOK GREAT!!!! You are very motivating to many of us moms!
As a mom of 2 (both from c-sections) it is a blessing to me to have found Michelle, the pics don't lie, I will have abs like that some day, from working my butt off, not surgery...mark my words...thanks Michelle.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everything everyone is saying, however...I am a mother of one. I use to be 220 pounds and through diet and exercise I am down to 145 that's 75 pounds gone. I went through training for figure competition and got lean however my tummy (lose skin) went nowhere. I am trying everything through diet and exercise. I am currently going to try buffmother and body for life and after that tummy for me. I think I deserve it and I plan to continue to live a fit life afterwards!!
