Please post. I am dying to see if what my beautiful two children did to my stomach is somewhat reversable in any way!

:grumble: "its where you have the pooch along with stretch marks , oh yeah and you kind of sort of dont have a belly button anymore."

    man how do i get mine to look like that? i'd take it even smooth and tones and not ripped but i can't seem to get it tighter and lose the fat on to. I have been doing rin30 and 30ds and i have more definition but it'ss till bigger then i'd like. If i suck it in or tighten my abs, that is what i would liek it to look ALWAYS, but no luck..

    Please post pic, I need to and want to believe that what my ONE CHILD did will ever look somewhat close to normal again. LOL I must say that the pouch and the stretch marks have got to go. Also can someone tell me what they did to get rid of it. I'm considering a tummy tuck. since I had a c-sec it's all the same right???

    I still have a lot of belly skin.
    It's going down.
    I think my bigger problem was being obese before/during/after both pregnancies.
    My skin hates me.

    I am not sure if this is an acceptable MFP pic but I had a set of twins - 3 months of bed rest and over 100lbs weight gain (not a good pregnancy at all) ---- I think I am doing ok! :)

    oops I thought I had fixed that! lol oh well - you get the idea! ;)

    I eat between 1800-2000 calories a day, I try hard to make it as clean as possible and I have completed 2 rounds of P90X and 1 round of P90X2 - it's a work in progress! ;)

    I want to look like MLgarcia3 (you are an inspiration!)

    I think I have come to terms with the idea that it will never be perfect... I'm 36 and a very busy mom... I look better now than I did when I was 23, I am happy with this!

    Great topic and great posts!
    I have 2 kids and (2 pregnancies back to back with 80 pounds of weight gain.) I have some stretch marks on my stomach near my belly button, too. My youngest will turn 3 next month and I just got back to my pre baby weight and into my pre baby clothes. It gives me confidence knowing I'm not the only one that experiences this. After some tanning, the stretch marks are pretty well camouflaged. However, sometimes when I'm bending over, I think I have extra skin on my stomach that hangs down (especially near the stretch marks, like maybe that skin will always be a bit excessive?) I actually have a very small stretch mark INSIDE my bellybutton that now looks like a belly button piercing scar. I don't have any pictures of me close up in a bikini, because I still don't have my confidence back, but you can kind of see my stomach in my profile picture.

    Thanks for all the posted pictures by these beautiful mamas!

    I am the proud mommy of 3 beautiful girls and I hope to one day have some nice looking abs.

    This is what my belly looked like at 150 lbs:

    And this is where I am at right now after 2 rounds of insanity and at 125 lbs:

    When it comes to my midsection, I know I have lots of work to do but I will not loose hope. After my third pregnancy, my belly button didn't look the same as before, I think I have a hernia.

    jass_mal did you lose most of your weight doing p90x or did you incorporate other exercises too?

    Well done Ladies!

    I have two small kids (they will be three and one in March).
    I luckily didnt get stretch marks with either of them but defiantly had the mommy pouch! The first pic was taken in October when I finally decided to start eating right and lost the last ten lbs. The second photo is today. I have never had abs in my life even though I've usually been pretty fit so I am delighted with the results so far from lifting for the last few months.

    There is hope Moms, just dont give up!!
