Anna o' Brien / Glitter + Lazers / GlitterandLazers - Fat, drunk, consoomer attention whore who would rather eat and drink herself to death than endure a single negative emotion

The calories consumed are more than the calories burned. She calls this exercise.

Anna is about to be miserable in all that full body compression gear as spring starts in Austin. Hope she is enjoying the “cute” outfits now.

Sometimes they do actually create a fake bellybutton, depending on how much skin is removed. I had a tummy tuck following major weight loss and my surgeon has a “proprietary bellybutton technique” (hilarious phrase) that creates a very realistic one. Purely for aesthetics though.

Short as that walk may be, she’s doing it without deodorant (doctor’s orders!), but with a few dozen spritzes of Black Opium to cover her BO and piss pants.

Also, is it just me, or are her two calves different shapes/sizes?

Heh, I think you might be right.
Either her right chicken leg is fuller or it's a filter glitching.

Someone was praising her clothes for holding up, but I also wanna give filter technology a shoutout for not just going "error" when trying to process Anna's half a ton delusions.
 
I found this old NYT article online. I couldn’t access the source material, but it shows that women who have liposuction gain it back.




The woman’s hips bulged in unsightly saddlebags. Then she had liposuction and, presto, those saddlebags disappeared.
Photo after photo on plastic surgery Web sites make liposuction look easy, its results transformative. It has become the most popular plastic surgery, with more than 450,000 operations a year, each costing a few thousand dollars.
But does the fat come back? And if it does, where does it show up?
Until now, no one knew for sure. But a new study, led by Drs. Teri L. Hernandez and Robert H. Eckel of the University of Colorado, has answered those questions. And what he found is not good news.
In the study, the researchers randomly assigned nonobese women to have liposuction on their protuberant thighs and lower abdomen or to refrain from having the procedure, serving as controls. As compensation, the women who were control subjects were told that when the study was over, after they learned the results, they could get liposuction if they still wanted it. For them, the price would also be reduced from the going rate.

The result, published in the latest issue of Obesity, was that fat came back after it was suctioned out. It took a year, but it all returned. But it did not reappear in the women’s thighs. Instead, Dr. Eckel said, “it was redistributed upstairs,” mostly in the upper abdomen, but also around the shoulders and triceps of the arms.
Dr. Felmont Eaves III, a plastic surgeon in Charlotte, N.C., and president of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, said the study was “very well done,” and the results were surprising. He said he would mention it to his patients in the context of other information on liposuction.
The finding raises questions about plastic surgery. Liposuction has been around since 1974 and is heavily advertised. Why did it take so long for anyone to do this study?
Maybe it’s because such a study is very difficult, said Dr. Samuel Klein, director of the Center for Human Nutrition at the Washington University School of Medicine. It takes a team of researchers, and money. Fat must be measured precisely, with scans.
And surgery, said Jonathan Moreno, an ethicist at the University of Pennsylvania who has studied the field, is not like other areas of medicine.

“A lot of it has to do with the culture of surgery, which is literally hands-on,” he said. Surgeons, he added, often feel a deep connection to their patients that makes it difficult for them to agree to clinical trials that involve randomizing patients.
Another problem, Dr. Moreno said, is that different surgeons have different skills and different techniques. Surgery is not like taking a drug, where one pill is just like every other.
So instead of doing rigorous studies, surgeons tend to innovate, inventing their own procedures and publishing anecdotes about patients, a practice that can be misleading.
But in this case, the outcome did not depend on the surgeon. It depended on the biology of fat. And obesity researchers say they are not surprised that the women’s fat came back. The body, they say “defends” its fat. If you lose weight, even by dieting, it comes back. And, the study showed, if you suck out the fat with liposuction, even if it’s only a few pounds — it was about 5.8 pounds for subjects in the study — it still comes back.
“It’s another chapter in the ‘You can’t fool Mother Nature’ story,’ ” said Dr. Rudolph Leibel, an obesity researcher at Columbia University.

Some researchers have their own anecdotes. Dr. George Bray, a professor of medicine at Louisiana State University, once saw a young woman who was so distraught by her protruding abdomen that she had an operation to slice off some of her abdominal fat.
“Her lower abdomen was considerably thinner,” Dr. Bray said. “But the areas above it picked up the extra fat.”
Then there are the studies with laboratory rodents that had fat surgically removed. The fat always came back. And, like the women in the new study, the rodents got their fat back in places other than the place where it was removed, Dr. Klein reported. They grow new fat cells to replace the ones that were lost.
The same thing happened to the women who had liposuction. It turns out, Dr. Leibel said, that the body controls the number of its fat cells as carefully as it controls the amount of its fat. Fat cells die and new ones are born throughout life. Scientists have found that fat cells live for only about seven years and that every time a fat cell dies, another is formed to take its place.
But why wouldn’t the women grow new fat cells in their thighs? The answer, Dr. Klein said, may be that liposuction violently destroys the fishnet structure under the skin where fat cells live.

Nonetheless, the women in the study who had liposuction were happy, Dr. Eckel said. They had hated their hips and thighs and just wanted that fat gone.
As for the women in the control group, when the study ended and they knew the results, more than half still chose to have liposuction

but it looks as if when fat cells are removed, it's easier for your body to store regained fat in already existing cells than it is to manufacture new cells in the usual places,
I'm probably getting this at least half wrong, but I actually believe your body CAN'T manufacture new cells in the usual places.

Okay everything below is just what I understand, smarter kiwis please correct as needed:
Some organs grow back if you cut a piece off (your skin, your liver I think) but others don't. When you remove a clump of fat cells, those fat cells are just gone forever.

Your body stores triglycerides inside the fat cells. When you gain weight, the actual fat cells get bigger. Your body doesn't grow fat cells whenever you eat too much. (Like, it replaces cells when they die, but the number of living cells basically stays the same.)

Then your body removes the triglycerides to use them as fuel, and replaces them with water, which is lighter. This is why when people lose weight, it initially might show on the scale but they don't lose inches or clothing sizes for a while. (Weight loss sites call it "the woosh," when after sustained weight loss, the water is finally released and suddenly you go down two pants sizes.)

How many fat cells you have, and where in your body they are distributed, is dependent on a lot of factors: gender, ethnicity, genetics. And also environmental factors in your childhood. I believe your fat cell makeup is more or less set in puberty (though I'm ready to be told I'm mistaken.) So adverse childhood experiences like starvation or high stress, or over eating, will affect your fat distribution, and how many fat cells you end up having.

(I think this might be where HAES people get the idea of a "set point." Some people will just always have more fat cells than others of the same height/gender etc. Some people will always tend to be fatter or thinner than others. But of course, even if Anna is cursed with 30 times as many fat cells than the average woman due to her super rare obesity genes, the fat cells still need to be overfed to get so big. She still has to eat at a surplus to maintain her weight. She could eat at a deficit and just be a tall, robust gal, if she really wanted.)

Once you're grown, your fat cells and where they are, and how many they are. If you overeat, the fat cells get bigger, if you undereat, they get smaller. So if you lipo off your arms, and continue to gain, your body will have to put the weight somewhere else.

The midriff makes sense as a place to store fat. But if you lipo every problem area, then the body will start storing it in places that should only have the thinnest layer of fat cells, like your fingers or forehead.

Even if you only lipo'd one place, I don't think the body is rational enough to store the fat in a place that makes sense. If it did, we'd all have our beer guts lipo'd so we can regain it in our tits and asses. The tits are the last place Anna will gain, lol. Even if she got fat redistribution, which I can see her doing eventually.

ETA
There are lots of times though when they can’t do that, so just leave the patient without one.
🤮

I didn’t mean to suggest they can’t make a fake one, but during abdominoplasty they will try “navel preservation” first. It’s one of the things that separates abdominoplasty from panniculectomy. In panniculectomy they just cut off the fat apron which takes the navel with it. In abdominoplasty they cut around the existing navel, then after lifting the skin from the remaining abdomen, reposition the navel in the appropriate position from underneath the skin. There are times the navel can’t be saved, which leaves the option of fashioning a fake one (which adds cost) or just going without something you don’t need anymore.

I couldn’t access the source material, but it shows that women who have liposuction gain it back.
Fat Alexandra Rodriguez’s chin is a prime example.
 

GODDAMN, her feet are NASTY looking. Protip, Sally: Pointing them freak toes ain't making them disappear. What's the problem? You love spamming those smelly hooves every other time.
 
You have no idea how much that graphic made me laugh. It's like post-lipo Popeye.
playing whack-a-mole with the regain
This is what will lead to Anna's eventual housebound arc and pain pill addiction. Even after the recovery from the other stupid surgeries, she's not learning the lesson. She can't see that these horrifying surgeries are doing nothing for her.
How many women Anna's age could make that many wrinkles and furrows appear on their faces just by gurning for a camera? She should be alarmed at the state of her face.
 
I know they will craft a fake bellybutton, I have seen them. There is a woman I know who has one. She got some Scamron-tier-quality work done and then gained all the weight back. So now she has an uncanny flat belly with the fakest bellybutton possible staring at you like the goddamn Eye of Sauron surrounded by weird enormous shoulders and arms and bolt-ons that defy gravity and the Lord like Linebacker Barbie or something. It’s hilarious.

There are a lot of women in SoCal walking around with fake bellybuttons. It’s become a summer vacation game now to point them out with Mister BlueGopherSnakes. They are obvious as hell and anyone denying it is just coping.
 

This may be the most MANLY she has ever looked, which is saying... a lot.

I've been wondering what her plans are for her "career". It does seem like she's going all-in on the munchie/over-medicalized/medical mystery stuff. Which is so far removed from her start as a BoPo fashonista it's hard to fathom.

  1. Does she think that because she stumbled into success in the past that everything she does will automatically be successful?
  2. Has she done any research into whether or not people even want this type of content. (And if not just people in general, her current audience in particular).
  3. Is she just a gigantic retard who has made it this far in life due to dumb luck? *

Fascinating.

*(Obviously, the answer is "all three")
 
A follow-up question regarding the Return of the Fat conversation: I understand what the study has shown about the body making new fat cells but does it mean that those who have lipo must be diligent about their weight thereafter to avoid unintentional body fat modifications?

Yes. If you get lipo but don’t change your eating habits by eating fewer calories to maintain the weight loss, you’ll gain back the weight you got sucked out but it will be stored in new places and you’ll look lumpy and weird in the wrong body parts.
