Cosmetic Surgery: Dr. Kearney was named "Best Cosmetic Surgeon" by the San Diego Union Tribune. After having two kids, breast feeding totally destroyed my breasts! Don't get me wrong, I loved breast feeding and it has great benefits, and I recommend everyone to do it, just the after math left my boobs tiny, out of shape, deflated, full of stretchmarks, and droopy. I hated how they looked and didn't feel comfortable taking my clothes off or wearing a bikini in this beautiful California weather! I live right next to the beach yet, i was uncomfortable with my body. I have been wanting to get a breast augmentation for years and I went to dozens of surgeons to find the right one. Dr. Kearney by FAR is the best doctor I have ever seen. He specializes in breast augmentation, breast lifts, breast reduction, facelifts, eyelid lifts, brow lifts, rhinoplasty, liposculpture, tummy tucks, and skin rejuvenation, Dr. Kearney is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Serving the cosmetic surgery needs of Southern California communities such as San Diego, La Jolla, Del Mar, Encinitas and beyond, Dr. Kearney is also a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. If you feel like your breast are too small; your clothes fit well around your hips but are too big at your bust line; you have one breast that is smaller than the other; or weight loss / breast feeding has changed the size and shape of your breasts (like me), I would recommend Dr. Kearney for all your cosmetic surgery needs. I went to tons of doctors who had very little to say and barely explained anything to me. Dr. Kearney was so knowledgeable about everything and broke it down to me step by step. He even was able to determine the best size for my figure and will do the same for you so you dont choose something that makes you "look fat" or "too narrow". He is very skilled and professional and makes everyone look phenomenal! He is the best at making scars nearly invisible and giving you the best results possible! He literally is the BEST plastic surgeon out there. His prices are very competitive (even though they don't need to be) because everyone wants to go to him, and he gives the best results. You can choose to go to another doctor and not be happy with the results or go to Dr. Kearney and know that your getting the best treatment and be extremely happy with the results. Remember, its your body! Take it to someone who will take care of it and give you exactly what you want! Your the one who has to live with the results. Choose right the first time! Make sure to mention Taylor Hewlett when you call! You can call 1-800-671-1951 to schedule a consultation. You can also visit his website at http://www.kearneymd.com/ and see all of his beautiful work!
Tips on how to lose weight
1. Drink Water. If you cut all your caffiene and sugar drink intake and start drinking water you can lose up to 5 lbs in a week! If your not a water drinker, just try this for a week and see if it works for you. If your not ready to give up caffiene just yet, drink a glass of water in between your glass of caffiene. So if you have a glass of soda, drink a glass of water next before drinking another glass of soda.
2. Eat off a dessert plate and dont go for seconds. Your stomach is the size of your fist. So to keep yourself from over eating, put your bigger plates up top and your dessert plates down where you can easily access them and eat off a dessert plate.
3. Eat 3 meals a day, and 1-2 healthy snacks in between. If you constantly eat cause you have nothing to do, find something to do and keep yourself busy to keep your mind off food. Dont skip out on meals cause your body will store the fat.
4. Use larger utensils to eat. By using larger utensils you feel like your eating more, whereas if you eat with smaller spoons or forks you tend to eat more cause you feel like your not eating enough.
5. Yellow and red make you want to eat more, so instead eat off of blue plates which make you want to eat less. McDonalds colors are yellow and red which make people tend to eat more. Don't paint your kitchen either of these colors if you are trying to lose weight.
6. Dance! Dancing burns tons of calories and its fun! So turn up the music and while you are doing chores, in between commercials, or during your spare time practice those dance moves!
7. Do mini workout sessions. You can either work out 30 min a day, 3 times a week or do mini workout sessions everyday for 5-10 min. Some workout is better than no workout. Use the excercises off the TIPS AND TRICKS page or make your own. Workout during commercials, when you get up in the morning, during your spare time, at night, etc. Do lunges as you go from one room to the next....run up and down the stairs anytime you need to use them...do simple stretches while cooking food...you can make it apart of your regular routine without taking time out of your day.
8. Go on daily walks. Go on a daily walk with your spouse or family. Its a great bonding experience as well as great exercise.

You should be walking atleast 10,000 steps a day. Get a pedometer and track your progress.
11. De-stress. Take time to meditate and use the Stress Management Tips on this blog to help de-stress. It's hard to take care of your body when your overwhelmed. Take care of yourself first so you can help others.
