Did Liposuction Screw Up my Metabolism?

masha
I had Liposuction on my thighs done almost a year ago. SInce then, I have been gaining weight steadily despite constant exercise and diet. I go to the gym five days a week, do not eat after 6 p.m., almost never eat sweets, etc. Recently, I went on very restrictive diet for 13 days and lost about 10 lbs. But now, it all coming back, despite exercising. Is it possible that Liposuction screwed up my metabolism?
