For those of you who have had kids, what
worked the best for you while you were
trying to get back into shape. What
exercises did you find to work the best
with toning your lower body area (hips,
stomach, thighs, & butt) ? I can't
seem to shed the pounds from that area.
I look kinda funny cuz my upper body is
skinny again, and I have tooth picks for
arms, but my lower body still has some
baby fat. Also, if you know any diets
that work...I'd like to hear about those
too. :p

that i'm not pregnant again.) does anyone
know what the bad side effects of taking
diet pills are?

I have what they call the classic "pear
shape". It really sucks. I have a big
butt and thighs basically. Do crunches
really help with tummy toning? I've heard
they create a "pouch" of fat that you
can't get rid of at the lowest part of
your stomach. I've heard so many things
I dunno what to believe.

I would say biking and walking would take
some of it away...I wasnt trying to loose
pregnancy weight at the time but I had
that problem and I started biking to all
of my friends houses instead of trying to
find a ride and I got rid of the
flabby-ness... It didnt get too much
smaller but it turned it into muscle
instead of fat so it looked ok.... I have
really skinny arms and I had a really
skinny tummy but my thighs were huge and
my butt looked kinda flabby. Biking
really works them muscles in your thighs
and I think it affects your butt too,
burns lot of calories too

Hey, well one time when I wasnt pregnant I
was taking metabolife I think it was.
Ephedra free. I wanted to take trim spa
but I couldnt find it. I took those, ate
alot less and went to jog at the gym. For
about 45 min to an hour. I lost a few
pounds but I lost more inches. It looked
good. I did that for about 3 weeks and no
one wanted to join me anymore then I met
jose and had a busy life so I stopped. Oh
and I played tennis. It was fun and you
get more energy. You should try that.
Trim spa works good though, im taking it
once im done being pregnant and
breastfeeding.
