How plastic surgery sydney saved my marriage

By Constantina Ceriale




I hope my plastic surgery success story is one that inspires you to revamp yourself, by any means you choose.

Following my first 2 pregnancies, it was effortless to take off the pounds. At that time, when Michael and Katie were born, I guess I burned fat easier. Breastfeeding also probably assisted as well. I didn't even attend the gym but I was able to remain at 135 to 138 after the first three months of pregnancy. At 5 feet 6 inches, that weight seemed like a good one.

When I found out I was pregnant with Lauren, I was 34 and the pounds I built up did not come off as effortlessly as before. In reality, I continued increasing until I was well over 200 pounds. It seemed that I just awoke one day too heavy. I had to keep chowing down I felt bad. I expected I was going to break mentally.

My husband, John, was extremely loyal. He always rain down compliments and expresses repeatedly he loves me. However, my self-worth was in the toilet. I felt that John deserved a more beautiful me.

After I put on weight, it seemed John didn't look at me the same as previously. I thought he was embarrassed by me. I began exercising and observing my weight. John jogged with me every morning (he still does). I made a valiant effort to eat only healthier food. It required a lot of struggle and self-restraint but after a little over 3 months, I lost approximately FIFTY pounds.

Even though I dropped a lot of weight, the fat in my abdominal area proved to be stubborn. From the back, I looked like I did in my younger days. My (honest) good friends informed me so. It's just the belly fat that's exposing that I've previously given birth to three kids. Sitting down made it much worse, between my tummy fat and sagging boobs, it was really tough to feel positive about myself.

I've quite possibly simply imagined it but it appeared to me that John was usually looking at other women while we ran together in the morning hours. I specifically remember watching the Olympics. Those perfect physiques in the tv became a steady reminder of my very own flaws. I backslided into eating unhealthy food once again and ignoring working out completely. I felt really hideous.

Very soon I regained the weight I had shed. I was beaten down once more. Those days must have been dreadful for John but I could not get past my self-loathing and jealousy. I knew if things didn't change, we were headed for the inevitable - a divorce.

One day, I woke up and basically made a decision that I no longer wanted to be depressed and overweight. With much more perseverance I again started exercising and eating healthier. This time, my intensity and determination translated to my workout routine. I again slimmed down, back to about 145 pounds! I've gotten my self-confidence back but the tummy fat and the drooping bosoms are still there. What exactly should I do regarding this? Online searches only uncovered quacks marketing their eBooks. It boiled down to the basic truth that the only remedy was plastic surgery.

I discussed these facts with John. For me, I desired to look beautiful for both of us, and for him, although not on board originally, after a little nudging, he concurred. I asked around and a good friend referred me to a specialist in Sydney and I couldn't be happier.

Now I undoubtedly feel good about myself. I'm a lot more confident. The most rewarding aspect though, is having a revived relationship with my spouse, John. Our union is even better today than it's ever been - and this after 15 yrs of married life. I can surely say that plastic surgery saved my marriage.
