Hey, I was 17 when I got pregnant,and went
from 7stone to over 10 and a half!! I had
a beautiful baby girl 8months ago who
weighed 7lb 11oz. I thought when you had
babies young your body got back into shape
better! But I have an awful belly and
tons of stretch marks.Im not so bovered
bout the stretch marks,but anyone got any
advice/tips on how to get your flat tum
back?!
Nothing really works then healthy eating
and excersize such as sit ups and such...

I actually looked more toned and what not
after I had my daughter but I did 30 mins
or cardio a day and 30 curnches. Cardio
helps u lose the weight (waking, jogging,
running) and situps and what not will do
the toning. But to make it more
effective, dieting and eating properly
will help you to lose the weight combined
with exercise.

Are you breastfeeding? That generally
helps take the weight off more quickly,
you also lose a few lbs after you stop.
After I had my daughter I had a lot of
weight to lose. I had gained about 60lbs
during my pregnancy, and let me tell you
even my stretch marks had stretch marks!
I started doing cardio for 40 mins, 5
times/week and about 100 crunches/day. I
lost the last few lbs after about a year.
I weigh less now than I did when I was
pregnant, but my body doesn't quite look
the same.
