I am not sure how to even explain what I am complaining about. It is my stomach, it is the weirdest thing, I will notice that it is looking so much smaller and then the next thing I know I have two stomaches or it looks that way, one up top and one below and I actually have a waist. Then is one big stomach in a week or so and then it is two. It is driving me crazy. I am not sure if it is because I am losing weight and so my body is adjusting but what, but it is depressing! :grumble: :sad: :grumble:

    I've gone through that! Mine is much more normal now. I think sit ups would still help though :smile:

    Well it is a relief to know that this is/has happened to somebody else. I just joined the 100 sit-up challenge so maybe that will help. Thanks!

    Okay, Dave and I am not looking for a quick fix but my stomach is the one thing I absolute hate about my body. My abs have no definition or tone. I am sure three pregnancies didn't help but that can't be my excuse. I will just keep working!

    PATIENCE has never been my virture, lack of patience has gotten me in trouble many times. However, I am motivated and strong so I will get there. :smile: Thanks for your encouragement!!
  • Hi Amanda,
    No you are most definitely NOT the only one, sometimes when we lose weight our bodies do some shifting, in odd sorts of ways as you can see.:blushing: :wink: You'll notice more shifts as your body continues making changes and then you'll notice it all falls together and you will find the body you are looking for under it:flowerforyou:

    I think many women wish their stomaches were flatter but even small slim women don't all have flat stomaches some of it is individuality we all look very different but that's a good thing. :wink:

    Trust your body DOES know what it is doing because our bodies are pretty smart!:wink::flowerforyou:
