Hi.
As u can tell my stomach is gross. I know. I hate looking at it too :(
I have a questions about it.. I would like true stories or maybe some tips. Please.
Some facts about me. I'm a mom of a beautiful 6 year old. I've lost a good amount of weight after I had my daughter. I hate my stomach more then anything..
Do you think its possible to loose the indent on the bottom of my stomach without surgery?
Why do I have the indent? I did the test for diastasis recti and I dnt have it.

    Have you lost a large amount of weight recently? If so, your skin may still be in the process of tightening up. If not, I would imagine surgery is the only way to get rid of it.

    Having said that, I think it is always a good thing to focus on the things you LIKE about your body and ignore the stuff you don't. I feel sad reading the mean things you said about yourself. Things are not black and white, beautiful and ugly. You can still be attractive and not have a perfect body. In fact, you are probably the hardest on yourself. We tend to be our worst critics.

    Your best bet would be to do some heavy weight training. Building up some muscle might tighten the skin a little. Look, you had a child, you're going to show signs of that. Your stomach really doesn't look that bad.

    I haven't lost to much weight recently. Throughout the years I have..
    I understand that I shouldn't be negative. But its like this. If I don't love myself, who will love me? Nobody.
    I just want to change it.. my negative thoughts are motivation. Lol. I love my body. Just not my stomach..
