    So jealous :( I lost all my pregnancy weight but ill never be able to wear a bikini again because my stomach was ruined during my first pregnancy. Loads of extra skin and loads of stretch marks. My babies are 100% worth it don't get me wrong, I would give my life for them but it would be nice to be able to wear a bikini.

    You look stunning!

    Your stomach isn't a lost cause at all looking at your pics. If there's some loose skin... eat lots of food, do lots of deadlifts and fill it up with some nice fat Abs.

    It looks ok from the side but it is all loose skin and stretch marks. I don't even let my boyfriend of 3years see it

    haha- I'm 5'10.5" and I have some pretty muscular legs. I wear a 6 or 8 if that gives any perspective. :-) And yeah- I don't care so much about the scale any more either- lifting weights has made me smaller while weighing more. I'm focused on reducing body fat and preserving muscle and will eventually increase intake so I can work on increasing my lean body mass.

    My advice stands, and nobody cares about stretch marks :)

    I second the strength training. My skin was awful... but it has tightened up dramatically... I have some work to do, but when I get to "goal" body fat, I'm going to up my intake and train to gain more muscle.

    And yeah- stretch marks (I have a ton of them) are kinda like glitter. Just a little something extra. ;-) haha
