    Tons of Jillian Michaels, and now I do weight lifting and Pilates.

    That is my main construction site too, my belly. Twins and a c-section, another "normal"weight child and a 5kg child left me with stretch marks, hanging skin and no real bellybutton. Argh!

    Great to see your pictures, there is hope!

    My belly doesn´t look as as bad as it used to but it is still a long way.

    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?

    My stretch marks are there!! Trust me!! I never had them until my third!! I started with P90X last year and have stuck with the programs as best as I can. Nutrition has been the main key for the weight loss. A lot of protein and less carbs is what has been working. I exercise 5-6 times a week (weekends are hard because I hate working out when my husband is home; Sadly, I get embarrassed haha)

    Switched to a Clean Eating Diet

    WHAT I DO NOW:
    Heavy Weight LIfting 3 times a week
    Core Fusion Pilates 3 times a week
    Eat Clean

    Diet:
    High Protein (usually 150gs a day), better carb choices (good carbs like yogurt), better fat (good fat like almonds).

    The only thing I have noticed is that my stretch marks have faded some but I still have the tummy issue. I am hoping when I jump start my weight loss; I can get my stomach a little flatter. Can't wait, if i get to that point I will post a picture! :)

    For me,I want my belly to be round and that kind of fills up the belly skin and makes the stretch marks less noticeable. I did find a home remedy for stretch marks on Pinterest. I have not tried it yet.
    I try to think of my stretch marks as battle scars! lol
