From what I remeber dr said no cardio/sit ups and pushups might be foregetting stuff but then thats me!

I can't wait to start getting my tummy back!! It used to be so cute. I spent quite a bit of money on the tatoo, the piercing and the jewelry that used to hang from it. It was my favorite thing about myself, other than my butt which is just to0 huge now... :cry:

jess, ace bandages are those brown elastic wraps that you use when you sprain or pull something.

Does that really work? I mean wrapping yourself in ace bandages? If it does I will tell my sisters cause they both have belly's still and they want to get rid of them

Tigres, I hear ya on that one!! The other day I went to sit in a chair that's normally comfy, and I got up and it came right along with me!! I thought I was gonna die! Lol....I know i'm big..But damn!! I'm always sitting on my dogs cuz I think I got enough room to fit!!

My .Fiance wants me to keep everything from my hips down when I start losing weight...So I have to focus on my upeer body and ignore my lower body!! Lol

Yeah guys like it but they don't have to find pants to fit it!!! I've been too small for too long to give it up completely. I like the size I was b4 the belly got incredible. I was always way skinny (which just sucked) but pre bulge I got up to a nice size. I'd like to keep it but get my tummy and waist back and drop some butt. Not too much, though :lol: I liked having more "junk in the trunk"! The thicker thighs are definitely hot!!

I've also heard of doing that as well with the ace bandages, my sister in law did that and it worked like a charm. Another girl that had a baby about the same time who did not do that (family friend on my hubby's side) still looks pregnant.....But now after almost 2 years she is pregnant again.
Anywho, I so need to wrap myself like a mummy! But, should I wait until I go to my 2 week appointment since I had c-section? Or does that not even matter? I just don't want to suffocate where the insicion is. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

pre preggo I was 112/114 (memory getting fuzzy, it was either 112 or 114). Now i'm up to 144 and i've still got 8 weeks to go. So i've already gained 30 to 32 lbs. Before my tummy started to poke out though I gained 14 of those 30 some odd lbs and looked really hot!!
