  • I have started to see a difference. I remeasured after 3 weeks of following tupler technique and it has definitely started to close. I have to re measure again next Thursday at end of week 6. First 3 weeks was only seated exercises. At week 4 head lifts were added. I have a feeling that its going to be a few months before…
  • Yes definitely uncomfortable....some days I do forget its there and others I can't wait to rip it off! The Velcro is already starting to not stick after 8 weeks...gotta fix that somehow!
  • I started at 3-4-1 1/2 if I measured correctly. At week three of tupler technique I measured about. 1 1/2-3-1/2. ...waist went from 27 1/2 to 24 1/2... Tomorrow I start week 6 so next Thursday I ill measure again.
  • I did not have c sections. I think this occurred during my second pregnancy. One of the important things I've learned so far is absolutely no crunches! Planks or Pilates 100s.... Nothing in the hands and knees position or that puts your body in a jackknife position....this only makes your abs push forward....which makes…
  • I am going to create a group on myfitnesspal for people with this condition can communicate with each other....I am going to send invites so we can all chat about our success, roadblocks, frustrations, etc!
  • Yes I bought the $80 kit....it comes with the splint, DVD and a guidebook to keep track of your exercises and measurements. I am on my last day of week 5. I wear the splint 24/7 except when showering or when I wash it. I have seen amazing results so far. Diastasis was definitely getting smaller when I measured at 3 weeks.…
  • Don't give up. We all need to indulge once in a while. I have days EVERY week that I go over my calorie goal.....every day is a new beginning . There are times I go over by 10 calories and times when it's 500.....and times when I am under. Don't compare yourself to what others are logging in or it will drive you crazy!
  • Sometimes I just have my protein shake and then chop up 3 strawberries, 1/2 banana and 1/4 c blueberries in a bowl and eat that after I drink my shake....it's good for dessert too.....
  • Sure.....go to diastasisrehab.com to check out tupler technique. I'm only on day 10....I see a huge difference in my belly already (my belly button has become an innie again) but won't re measure the diastasis til week three. The initial measurement at the belly button was between three and four finger widths. Before i…
  • I will google it tonight...thx so much.....I am not having anymore babies and no I'd :). Do you do iit everyday?
  • I do zumba once a week as part of my cardio.....I would go more but the classes conflict with my kids schedules ....my girl does post videos on YouTube though maybe I should use them more
  • Thx...I do workout everything....my upper abs and obliques are in good shape...I just feel like something is damaged in the center
  • I will look into that....thanks
  • I really enjoy both Bokwa and Zumba. They really are two completely different workouts. Zumba has much more dance incorporated into it and different steps to each song. With Bokwa each move is a letter of the alphabet so once you learn each letter they are repeated in all different sequences in the different songs. The…
  • I don't think about it. I just order what I want and don't worry about others. What bothers me is how people look at me because I count my own calories. A bunch of us went out for lunch the other day with the kids and I ordered a turkey sandwhich at the deli. I asked that they only put one slice of alpine swiss and four…
  • I have a lower back tattoo and I don't care who thinks it is a tramp stamp. It is my only tattoo and it means something to me. When I was in H.S. my older sister was tragically killed in a car accident. My closest friends gave me a cross the day of her funeral. It was a beautiful silver cross that looked like it had…
  • It's incredibly brave of you to say what you just said. You can do it you just have to believe in yourself. You need people to help motivate you and make you feel good about your progress! You certainly have taken a step in the right direction! There are tons and tons of amazing workout dvds out there so you don't ever…
  • Chocolate whey protein (2scoops) 10 oz water 1/2 a banana 1-2 tablespoons organic powdered peanut butter 1 cup fresh baby spinach ( totally tasteless but helps get my veggies in) Ice
  • Me too and I'm always looking at labels at peoples houses.....if I go to a chain restaurant I check out the menu online and look up the nutritional info beforehand so I know what are healthy choices to order
  • Yum...haven't had that in years...it was always a late night snack at the diner!
  • I log Everyday even if we go out to dinner or go to a party. Try to estimate what I am eating even if it means I'm in the red
  • I bought from eBay for $64.....less than half of what beachbody charges.....new sealed in the package with free shipping....
  • I do chalene johnson turbo fire about five days a week, ten minute trainer abs, brazil butt lift and I take strength classes at the gym. It's only right around my belly button area...so frustrating.....
