Can you see your abs??? Is it possible??? I have a slight glimpse, but I wonder if that's all I'll ever have!

    I have 4 kids but I'm definitely working on being able to see them! They've been shy for quite some time and have been hiding. :)

    4 kids here too and the last 2 were twins! Sometimes I think I can see my abs and then a few off days and they are gone again.....I'm wondering if I am ever going to find them again.......

    You rock, Yanicka! I also started seeing my abs again after baby #6--weight lifting and planks along with my martial arts training and eating well did it for me.

    I am a mommy to 4...last ones were twins. I haven't seen my abs in years! Since the twins, I wear a girdle every single day just to hold the tummy in! I am hoping to get a tummy tuck the first of next year just to get my flat tummy back.

    I am able to feel where my abs are working when doing my strength training, just dont have a visual yet.

    I have 4 children - my oldest is 17 & my youngest is 9. A friend of mine recently told me it is possible to get rid of loose skin after babies by watching calories - which I never did. I have been doing it for almost 2 months - and I have noticed a difference. Working out plus counting calories seems to be the key. The skin will never be like before I had children but I actually was brave enough to wear a bikini on vacation last month. I do have stretch marks - but there is nothing short of surgery that will get rid of those.

    LOL not a secret really. Eat at a small deficit, do heavy strenght training, a bit of cardio.

    Ok, I have been doing mainly cardio (bad shoulders) and some strength training.....and 'trying' to eat that deficit.....lost my mojo there for a while but seemed to have located it again this week. Accountability does matter...
