I just had a third c-section. I personally don't think mine will go away without cosmetic surgery, but I am just going to lose weight sensibly and see what happens :-)

I have had four C-sections. My most recent baby is 6 months old. I've been putting off dieting and exercising since his birth, but am ready to jump back on the bandwagon to lose weight and actually keep it off this time. Every time I've lost weight in the past, I've gotten pregnant again and just gained back much of what I'd lost. With this baby, I had a tubal ligation done so we can ensure there will be no more babies unless they are grandbabies (many, many, many years in the future I hope as my oldest is only 13).

skeehn0806, I've never had a problem losing weight because of a C-section. It's been harder each time, and requires more effort on my part, but I don't attribute that to the C-sections as much as I do to my aging body (and thus slowing metabolism).

Oh lordy... Here we go.... In August 2012 I, for the first time in my life made a commitment to losing weight and I did it! I lost nearly 30 pounds with help from this site, my husband and my work keeping me running 90 hours a week. The weight came off and I fell just two pounds shy of my goal, but who the hell cares I was still 274 pounds and got my self down to 247 which was AWESOME! Thennnn I started a new job where i wasn't moving at all and my weight loss came to a halt and then one morning I find my self completely and totally sick over a bagel and I thought I had diabetes. So I got back to the grind and no matter what I did no weight was coming off.. at all. And that when it hits me... I stop and bought a economy back of tests and sure enough, baby. So I made a new commitment to my diet and I managed to only gain 8 pounds during the whole pregnancy. I ended up having a c-section because of gestational diabetes, and an estimate of a giant baby. I left the hospital with an 8 pound baby and 12 pounds lighter then when I got pregnant. Instead of staying on top of things 6 weeks of being board out of my mind lead to gaining back weight and feeling icky..... So its time to get back on the ball and I naturally am left wondering will my fat roll actually go away if I can't feel it?!?!? :-P

I'm one! I sure do know what you mean! Right now, however, I have extra fat in lots of other places too...wondering if the stomach fat might be the last to go? I am doing strength training as well as some cardio. I am exclusively nursing my wee one, however, so I am only reducing my calories by 10% of my TDEE to avoid loosing any of my milk supply. I hope as I near my pre-pregnancy weight, the stomach will shrink a little?

I too have the fatty skin apron post c-section. I'm only 5 weeks out and have 50 lbs to lose, so not sure if losing this weight will help or not. It is unfortunate. I feel your pain sister!

HI ladies, this was my first c-section, 2nd baby. I'm 35 years old and had my first one when I was 19. I bounced back real quick with her but with this little one not so quick. i'm not sure what everyone is saying about the flap though...starting to scare me. I still have to wear my maternity jeans (delivered Dec 23, 2013) but mainly because my hips got HUGE! I still have a bit of a belly but no flap. Maybe when belly goes down there will be a flap??? I have about 20lbs to go to be where I want to be. Doing what's called Kaia Fit, bootcamp style program for women only. I love it!! But need to take in more calories (guess I'm not eating enough). Milk supply is good though!!

Hi, I've had 4 C-sections. The first was emergency, and the last 3 were planned. I lost 60 pounds after Baby #2. I started out with a flap that turned into a pooch. I focused on strength training and eating clean (sugar free), and the pooch nearly disappeared. Eating sugar free was hard for me to maintain, so the pooch came back. Then I got pregnant lol.
