Inner, Outer, Back of Thigh - Larkspur, CA

Hi bellas! When people ask me what ethnicity I am, this has been my response for about 25 years (I am now 40): "Half Norweigan, half Italian. Guess which half is Italian." I am 5'8" with great boobs and a tiny waist and an amazing booty that looks like it had a BBL. But it didn't. My saddlebags, however, have added a size or two to all skirts and pants for me - and make my thighs seriously disproportionate to the rest of my body. I exercise 4-5 days a week, often with a personal trainer: I run 4 miles 4 of those days, then mix in bikram yoga 2 days a week and then do weights 3 days a week. I am in great shape but those saddlebags are as stubborn as my nonny (Italian grandmother)! When Italian-American families are cooking and eating together, we like to say "A minute on the lips, forever on the hips." I am walking proof of this. My fat lives in this one area of my body. I decided to have liposuction to get rid of it once and for all. My nonny won't be mad - I will still have my big family booty! So far, I am stoked. I think staying positive and going into the procedure with a healthy mind and outlook is key. I am on day 4 of post op and every time I get up, I thank goodness that I have a strong upper body and abs. Otherwise I have no idea how I would get up to get water, go to the bathroom, etc. If you are considering lipo or have scheduled it for a month or more from now, I recommend amping up your training routine. Get that upper body strong and limber. Especially if you are having lipo on your abs, which I did not, because then you will need your arms like never before just to get comfy on the bed. There you have it! I will post pics as the days go on. Ciao bellas xoxoxoxo
