Where Will I Most Likely Gain Weight After a BBL?

4wks post op after bbl. My entire body looks amazingly different. I had fat taken from my back, hips, and sides. Before my precedure, when ever id gain weight id gain only in those ares. Now that those areas have been lipoed, if I were to gain weight will I gain in those same areas as I did before? My waist has never been this tiny and ive never been so well proportioned. I just love it! Ive noticed that my eating habits has changed. I fear that I will gain the weight back in those areas.
