My little girl is 18months and I still have an apron belly shape. It hangs at the bottom rather than the fat being kept up? It's looks like I've lost a tone of weight and theres no support anymore.

When I met my partner I was 9st 3, I went to 12st 3 in just a year. I've always struggled with food, I had anorexia. I healed by going 9st 3 and staying there for years. I ate whatever I wanted, I was happy. When I met my partner and i had to live with him and his family, all they ate was takeaways and with being college and haveing no income, I couldnt just go out and buy what I wanted. They didnt have fruit to snack on but chocolate and crisps. i gained so fast. Then during pregnancy I went to 17st 🙃 when I gave birth my weight settled at 14st 13lb...
18months later were in our own place and I'm back down to 12st 2.6lb and continuing to loose. It's been up and down, I stray from the journey and then get back on. This time im determined to not stray and get back to where I felt my happiest.
But what's getting me down is the apron belly.. when I suck in it doesnt get any better. It gets worse :( will it get better with weight loss. I know excersise could help but I want the apron belly gone permanently, not just while I'm toned. Is this only capable with surgery? If so I'm only 22 and want more kids so I'll have to deal with it till I'm finished.
