Moms out there in MFP-land,
I had a C-section over two years ago and just got a small hernia on my C-section incision line last weekend. Has this happened to anyone else after losing weight? It seems logical that things can go downhill from gaining weight but why losing weight? It's just not fair.
In the last month, I really stepped up my weights, abs workout (5xs a week) and I run 3x week. I'm so excited about my weight loss (down 40 pounds from my largest no-prego weight) and now I'm afraid I'll be side-lined with this stupid injury.
Anyone else had to deal with this? I'm trying to spin this in a positive light, so maybe I'll just get that tummy tuck earlier than I planned...
Thoughts or advice?
