Anyone else got a "JellyBelly"....

[aimeesmummy]

.... and how did you cope eventually having it on display for a new partner?!

[43Today]

My ds is 8 and I am a size 8/10 but i still have a little jelly belly and my tummy button looks like someone did a cross-stitch in the middle of a cushion (iykwim).. my ex-BF had no kids, but actually LIKED my tummy, he used to cuddle it! but i will never wear a bikini again..

[mumto3girls]

a curve is normally not aka a belly hang...

[satyricon]

Can I just say that some of us guys kinda like a woman with a curve or two?

I'm pretty unimaginitive when it comes to cooking for just me, I am bored, bored, BORED with stir-frys but they are so easy!

[AbRoller]

I feel the same about the stretchmarks and true, if I loose this weight the skin will still be saggy but first things first eh

I've joined another thread to help with the motivation. Lots on there trying to loose weight too so it's not such a lonesome road and can be a laugh too.

I'll keep going and deal with the 'leftovers' then

WW only really a struggle because I'm not very imaginative when it comes to food so I'm getting sick of boiled veg and salad but got a few handy tips on the other thread so things are looking up.

chat ye later

Keep going with the WW, my Mums on it and has lost nearly 3 stone and feels and looks fantastic. Am at work so can't stop for long...

[Aloveheart]

my stomach looks like a cat has repeatedly scratched me down my stomach about a hundred times. damn strechmarks. I try no tto let it get to me otherwise i'd be crying all day everyday over it, lol. I should do somehting relaly but i think if i lost alot of weight it would still be there but smaller. sigh

[ktmoomoo]

[ktmoomoo]

[AbRoller]

don't know why I called you kitty either - I'm deranged from starvation I think. I'm on ww and struggling!

[nappyaddict]

i have got one and tonnes of stretch marks. i was really worried the first time i got with someone after ds but once i'd got passed that i actually realised having a baby has made me much more confident about my body even though it looks much worse! i figure if they know you've got a baby they expect it.

[ktmoomoo]

lol looks like i swim in poo lol yukky

[AbRoller]

You have a full stop before the 'L' in pool - I know, I know, I'm easily amused

[JoMa]

I'll join the SALAD club

ds2 is 10 weeks and i'm on my own again. I too only seem to go home to nursery and back again. Ventured out for the night last week and hated it! And do I really want to meet a man? I mean, dh's may well except your flaws, but it is rather daunting to think that you've got to expect someone new to accept them all too!

[ktmoomoo]

[AbRoller]

[ktmoomoo]

[ktmoomoo]

dh likes my jelly belly lol he says it part of me and he has one too so we look the same lol

[AbRoller]

Aloveheart, well one difference - my 7yo is a DD.

I was so worried about dp seeing it for the first time I used to get into bed with pj's pretending I was cold {blush] for MONTHS! I'd get warm then and take them off under the cover. I remember the first time I woke up and his arm was around me resting on my saggy tum and I started to cry cos I thought he'd be disgusted but he wasn't and he let me know

Despite all the things he does to annoy me - leaving crusty socks [yuk!] on the floor, farting really loud and laughing, drinking soda from the bottle and getting dd hyper before bed - I love the way he loves me....rolls and all

[Aloveheart]

Glad there's someone the same Abroller.

[Skribble]

I think mine are "Gone faster" stripes.

[Skribble]

I given up on the briget jones type pants and just go for normal high wasited pants that sit over my bump. Never got pants that do the job and are comfortable.

I hate the fact that all the lovely bra and pant sets just now have silly little pants which after seethrough or just too skimpy.

I'm near Guildford in Surrey! Maybe we should start a MNers "salad" night out (Sad And Lonely And Desperate...) I'm happy to admit it these days, if I didn't admit it, I would be in denial ...!

[jellyjelly]

Get out there, Where are you? Maybe we can arrange a meet up?
