Gym top to hide mum tum?

After 3 c sections I look like Homer Simpson from the side. I had a PT after my third DC and one day he looked sadly at my tummy and told me he thought it wouldn’t go unless I had surgery 😢. Really affected my confidence and I let myself go a bit.

A few years later I am back to the gym, heavier than I was. I’ve got sweaty Betty leggings which are great for holding it partially in. Any suggestions for loose longer line t-shirts that I can have? I keep catching sight of my tum in the mirrors and it’s quite depressing..!

I've found the Uniqlo Airism tops are good for the gym. Lightweight and drape nicely.

Same as you, have this in black - but it's sold out currently. This colour is nice though.

Oversized t shirts are really fashionable right now so your best bet is to actually just buy a really huge oversized men’s T shirt - that’s what I’ve been doing (size 18, huge stomach).

I don't know how tall you are- i'm 5'8" -and find Uniqlo airism t-shirts too short. There's no way I want to reach up for the lats bar and flash my muffin top!
I've got a couple of non-exciting Next own brand fitness tops and I go one size up so they dont cling.

I’ve got an under armour mens top to hide my c section pouch. Light and breezy but I’ve had it for years so unfortunately can’t link. It’s not the most flattering but hides everything I need it to!
