any moms have before and after pics after having a c-section. I'm having a terrible time with my stomach and need some inspiration!

I can't figure out how to post pics, but I've had a c-section and a hysterectomy 6 years later, and I NEVER THOUGHT my tummy would ever be flat again. I started MFP in June of 2012 and my tummy is FINALLY FLAT

Sorry, I hit post before I was finished typing. I have a desk job, in menopause, and have 3 kids and a very busy life. Alot of people would use that as an excuse but I refuse!!! I eat 1200 calories and never drink my calories. Occasionally I will eat 1500. This website has truly changed my life and I will never go back to my old habits!!! Good Luck You can do it!! If I can, anyone can. My biggest piece of advice is never give up. You WILL have bad days, you WILL hit plateaus, but KEEP going, no matter what :-)

I don't have pictures and I'm not near my goal as I on we as in 2012 but that's one of my worries. I have had two and I have always heard it won't ever be flat...When I lost 52 lbs I don't remember it being a problem though but I don't believe it was 100% flat and well now I'm starting ALL over because I gave up and stop paying attention to what I was eating.

Posted this not too long ago. I had a c-section too. My belly isn't perfect yet, but I'm still a work in progress.

2 c/sections here... but unfortunately my stomach will never be completely flat thanks to split stomach muscles (large babies, not from the c/sections ) but it's the closest it's been in 6 years :happy:

I don't have any before photos on here yet, but I have some current photos in my profile if that helps.

It will get better, promise. Just keep going and don't give up.

Pretty sure its just pregnancy and not c sections that cause stomachs in some women not to be flat anymore? It all depends on genetics, how much your skin was stretched, and fitness.

Hi, I don't have any pics to offer, but I had three c sections between 17 and 23! This was over 30 years ago. Having been on MFP for a year now, losing 11 kilos and really working to strengthen my stomach muscles, (to support my back as I have a herniated disc) I can report my stomach is pretty firm and flat. There will always be a little bump above the scar, but it doesn't notice with clothes. I am very happy to be so slim after years of feeling blobby! So yes you can do it!!

After I had my last child by c-section was 180 lbs. I was at my biggest when I found out I was pregnant with her, lost 70 lbs in my pregnancy and gained most of it back after I had her.
