    The belly seems to be the first thing to go south and the last to get back in shape. Pilates really helps with the pouch. I just have one child and she wasn't a C section, but I think it will with a very strict diet (eliminating most sugar intake) and ab targeting exercise. There are some great websites that show how to do Pilates step by step.

    I'll post my success pictures in 6-8 months :wink: All joking aside this is one area I am really hoping to lose. I know it will probably be the last of the weight to come off but I'm really hoping it will happen. Any tips or advice would be wonderful!

    I had 3 children all by c-section's... My last 2 were so close together, that my uterus has never went down, completely! I also have my pouch, and even though I've lost weight, I hate the look of it. But before I did alot of cardio and strength training focused on my middle, along w Pilates... That helped me before, but until my body works w me and my uterus decides to go down, nothing works for me this time around!,

    I have had two c-sections and have no pouch. I ran it off and did a lot of exercises in the plank position. Running is what really took it off though, both times. And its not "lucky" its hard work and a GOOD diet.

    I am hoping against hope mine will go away without surgery to get it gone. It has been a big source of embarrassment for me.

    Im 4'11" and currently 111lbs. I was 98 preprego and didn't have abs then but I had a nice stomach. Now I have this ugly strechmarked flap that I hate. It makes me depressed and all my weight is in my stomach. I know 111 doesn't seem like alot of weight but it is on a petite girl. I wanna lose 15lbs. Anyone have advice on losing weight when u don't have alot to lose? Just wanna be me again. Thnx

    I have twins via c-section, I hope this damn pouch goes away, although it seems to be easier to get rid of for women that had natural deliveries. But I've seen men with these pouches too and makes me believe that wearing your pants too tight at the waist conribute sto it too

    I think the only lucky part is if you get stretch marks or not. I have horrible stretch marks and loose skin from my first pregnancy. I am working on getting rid of the fat but short of surgery I'll never get rid of the stretched out skin.
