Fat coming back after lipo

Los Angeles4257
I did lipo on my I/O/knees and thighs 6 months ago and then flanks/Hips and tummy 3 months ago. I was told 7lbs was taken total but the leaner I am getting on the stomach the bigger my legs are getting. It's like everything is coming back. I am forced to keep a strict diet and exercise a lot but not sure what to do. why is the fat coming back?
