Hi, I'm a model and I couldn't lose the fat in my hips so I did a lipo ( thighs hips flanks legs ) and six months after I am bigger then when I was "skinny" and this even by eating clean. When I work out my legs got even bigger. I'm not loosing weight even with all the effort - I'm desperate. As you can see on the picture my legs are bigger than when I was skinny and this even if eat super healthy. Is it normal ? Does it mean I have lymphedema?
