I need to know if my stomach will EVER be the same again. I am willing to eat healthy and diet but I need to hear some success stories!!!!

I would make sure you don't have diastasis recti, easy to check yourself. This can make your stomach pooch out. If skin is the problem... Give it some time, but it may not get better!

I have loose skin, big muffin top. I'm only 4 weeks after birth ( I KNOW I KNOW )

Ah don't worry! I find that goes in time. Still check for diastasis recti though as it will affect how you can exercise as sit ups can make it worse. themiraclebox.wordpress.com/2008/04/18/checking-your-abdominals-for-separation-diastasis-recti/

Thank you purple. Especially for not having a go at me for being impatient!! X

I don't think it is helpful to have a go, it isn't going to stop you from being bothered about your tum! Also I am the same, feel much better when I am back to 'normal' after a baby although my normal has changed!

Are you pregnant now? Im pregnant with no 3 but dont see any reason I wont look the same as before I started having children. I do a lot of exercise and dont put a lot of weight on and thats it really.

Sorry just read you have given birth. I would say the keybis exercise, exercise, exercise.... and then exercise some more! Grin Thats what I do anyway try fitness blender workouts on youtube, push buggy as fast as you can as far as you can preferably up hills, do exercise videos of the tv and get your older children to join in, go running, sit ups etc.
