    Mine's not that great, but it's not horrible. I am trying to lose weight right now and get back into shape, so I'm sure my stomache will come back eventually with time. Right now I'm just trying to lose weight, once I'm closer to my goal I will focus more on toning. I'm sure I'm never going to be wearing a bikini or anything but I never wore one before I was pregnant either. I think it's just going to take time, it took 9 months for my stomache to get so big and I expect it to take 9 months to get back to looking how it did pre-preg.

    I know, my once flat tummy is a mushy mess! I am going to work on it for six months and after that if not much improvment a tummy tuck is in my future!
    I posted a while back about the saggy skin and not one person said they had saggy skin that went away-this scared me to tears!

    My stomach is mushy and has stretch marks, not the most attractive looking tummy. I want to lose weight but I'm not finding the time. I was going to try those 10 min workouts they have OnDemand but I get up at 4am, work a full day and come home at 5:30pm. I'm too tired and have little time with my babies before I have to put them down for bed and spend some quality time with my sweetheart.

    I'm hoping when it gets warmer out, we can start walking more on the weekends and hopfully start burning this fat off.

    I ordered this prgram called slim in 6. Its supposed to help tone and really focuses on muscles, which is whats so awful right now. Hopefully that will do some good. I'd like to give a tummy tuck some thought bc I will be coming into some money in June (I'm finally buying a new car!!) But I'm thinking I won't be done having kids. We are thinking we will have one more. Anyone have a baby after a tummy- tuck??

    Thanks for your thoughts girls...

    Oh, I got washboard abs by eating triple creme brie and lots of chocolate! The twinskin just melted away.

    Ooops, was that a pig flying by my window? :lol:

    One night waaay back, I was up with someone in the middle of the night and saw an infomercial for The Firm. And yes, I ordered it. AND IT IS WORKING (after only 3 weeks)!!!
    I looked in the mirror today and lower belly area is actually shrinking...and by shrinking, I mean tightening. The Firm will kick your a#@, but it really works. I also walk alot on the treadmill. Now if I can just do something about the stretch marks...

    Mine is quite disgusting. It is wrinkly and oddly shaped. I look about 3 or for months pregnant when I'm not wearing tummy flattening under garments. My innie is now an outie in the worst way. Looks like it's going to detach itself from the rest of my stomach. It's something awful alright. But what are you gonna do? I'm a SAHM and DH is a teacher so tummy tuck is not really in our budget right now. Besides I know I want to have more children so I figure maybe by then someone will have filled out a winning lottery ticket and slipped it in my mailbox.

    My weight is great but my stomach is horrible - makes my whole body look out of proportion.
    when with a group of women i meet with I wont pull up my top to breastfeed - not because im too modest to show my breasts but because Im embarrassed about my stomach - they all have beautiful one baby singleton stomachs!
