My Mommy Makeover - Phoenix, AZ

Thank you!

I had a breast augmentation with a lift as well. Unfortunately I had tons of skin there too. :(

Ty! I reduced my calorie intake and tried to eat negative calorie foods as often as possible. I exercised 6 days a week and tried to reset my metabolism by eating smaller meals more frequently. I also gained muscle by strength training which burns more calories while your resting. :)

Thank you!

Negative calorie foods are foods that burn more calories to digest than they contain, yet still allow you to get the daily amount of calories you need. Here is a list of foods with Negative Calories:
Vegetables


Asparagus Fennel *
Aubergine * Gourd *
Broccoli Leek
Cabbage * Lettuce *
Carrots Marrow *
Cauliflower Peppers
Celery * Radish *
Chicory * Spinach
Cress * Tomato *
Cucumber * Turnip

Fruits


Apricot, Mandarin orange
Blackberry * Melon Canteloupe *
Peaches, Clementines, Plums
Damsons, Raspberry *
Grapefruit Rhubarb **
Guava * Strawberry
Honeydew Melon, Tangerine
Lemon * Watermelon

The ones with astricks are negative calorie foods that your body works harder to digest, thereby burning more calories.

Combining negative calorie foods with good protein sources not only helps control appetite but will help maintain the metabolism because total calories are not cut too much, plus the amino acid pool is maintained which limits the loss of muscle.

No prob! I love these foods, because the more you eat, the more calories you burn!

I feel you! My surgery was Dec. 14 2010..still healing and waiting...lol
