    Nothing. If you lost a lot of weight, the excess skin stays. Your skin just stretches so much.
    If you lost a little, I don't think you even get a flab, ever.

    You should watch some weight loss programs on Discovery Health channel :)

    Yeah, so far my baby belly is softer and gushier than other fatty parts of my body, but still loose. I don't know if it will tighten up or not, I carried my son all in front and have stretch marks from above my bellybutton to the tops of my thighs... I desparately want to be in a two piece swim suit this summer, but will likely be sporting a one :tongue:
