    I would like to convince my wife that surgical removal (cosmetic surgery) does NOT have to be the answer. Can anyone back me up on this?

    I had a c-section and my son weighed almost 10 lbs at birth. I have stretch marks and lose skin around my belly button area. There is hope! Stick to a clean diet and incorporate strength training into your routine. Check out my pics for proof! Best Wishes!

    Here is my belly at about 2 months postpartum.

    Here it is at about 1 year postpartum. I gained 80 lbs during pregnancy and had a C-section.
    I've gained some weight back since this picture though and still struggle with that lower belly area

    I have lost a lot of weight before and now gained it back. But when I lost and did lots of exercise, the pouch was always there a bit. I had four kids vaginal births too. I try to think positive about the beautiful kids I have and concentrate on all the things my body does do for me (work, care for kids, love ;-), etc.) and also I kiss the feet of the person who invented Spanx for those special Christmas party dress up things.

    Spanx are great...........until you have to pee : o

    The top photo is my before and afters from January to March of this year. I have had 3 c-sections...TWINS 2007, singleton 2008, singleton 2011. The bottom photo is my CURRENT photo. I started Insanity in April but I got lazy during Recovery Week. I'm currently doing my "first" run with Insanity and pushing super hard this time around. I hope this is helpful.

    Congrats on your loss! It's definitely acheivable. Here is a more "recent" picture that I took in August.

    My pooch will eventually go, it has done before and it will again! Ive learned to accept my 'mummy medals' the stretchmarks. I know its really cliche but without them I wouldnt have my boys :heart: Will post pics at the end of the 30 Day Dread :bigsmile:
