Excess flabby skin

3 replies

I've lost 1st since having DD2 and annoyingly haven't dropped a dress size yet. I think this is partly because I have a flabby belly still. I have lost weight from there but still have the same amount of skin. It just kind of hangs down and if you grab a handful there is nothing behind it.

Is there anything I can do to get rid of this?

Watching because I'm in the same situation after losing 37lbs.

Beyond a tummy tuck, not really. Unless it's a very extreme example, it is so much more noticeable to you than anyone else.

My tummy is a porridge like consistency on the couple of inches below the belly button.Sad I hate it but still wore a bikini on holiday Grin

A tan, fake or otherwise helps

Ds1 trashed my belly. Going from a 27 to a 43 inch waistline in less than 9 months definitely exceeded my elastic limits as Newton would have described it. In the 2 years since DS2 was born, some of the excess wrinkles of skin have improved subtly. I've got a lovely high waisted bikini that balances covering the worst of it with showing off the fruits of my hard work in losing the surplus weight from the pregnancies.

I doubt that I'll get much further by natural means though.
