    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:

    I am REALLY hoping to lose mine... one week before I gave birth to baby #1- I went to bed with NO stretch marks, and woke up with a belly covered in them!!
    I would love to lose the little bit of saggy uneven skin on the bottom of my belly.... a girl can dream, right?? :)

    No C-section, but two full term pregnancies. I'm almost 52 years old. I've been overweight most of my life. I lost 60 lbs at age 50.

    My stomach was so bad that when I started working out, doing pushups disgusted me!! My stomach just hung there no matter how hard I tried to tighten it up. I would also sit on the couch with my husband and it would just flop over lol. I had a lot of lose skin. I read to drink a lot of water and exfoliate in the shower to remove dead skin cells and to get the circulation moving. It took a lot of patience and several months, but it got better. This picture is a 9 month process...

    OMG!! Do you have stretch marks at all? I dont see them. Yes, my belly does the same thing. How did you begin your journey? And how often do you excercise?
