Nadya Suleman's Bikini Body: Fact or Fiction?

Damn. How did this woman give birth to eight babies, and have a bikini-banging body a year later? 


Nadya Suleman, aka Octo Mom, and her ennie teeny red bikini are the cover story in this week's Star Magazine.


Suleman, who gave birth to her octuplets in January 2009, says she lost 150 pounds in nine months. And she says her weight loss was accomplished without any surgery, without a trainer, and without a meal delivery diet. Weighing in at 270 pounds prior to the birth, she is now back to her pre-pregnancy weight, and wearing a size two.

No surgery? Explain that to my stretch marks that refuse to leave my side. Or my stomach. Or my ....well, you can see where I'm going with this, right?

So how does Suleman account for her amazing weight loss and tight firm body? (and where did those stretch marks go?)

In the magazine, the OctoMom says she ate five small high-protein meals a day and exercised. That's it.

Sh****.

Now I am going to be jealous of Nadya Suleman. And her missing stretch marks.

Unless.....do you suppose .....could it be....Nadya has a bad case of 'mommy-brain,' and has forgotten a little nip and tuck and implanting here and there?

Weight Loss and Surgery

I have a friend who will shortly be undergoing lap band surgery in order to lose weight. The idea of any kind of surgery makes me beyond nervous, but I understand her frustrations with her situation and respect her choice.

If you or someone you know is considering having this type of surgery done,I think it is imperative to talk to doctors, to people that have had lap band surgery if possible, and do as much research yourself on the procedure, insurance issues, finding the right surgeon etc. The more information and advice you get will help you decide if this procedure is right for you or not.
