I'm sorry, but I must disagree with you and your doctors. I bore and nursed two children, each over nine pounds, and gained a great deal of weight with each one. But my stomach is perfectly flat and toned, and my breasts do not sag. South Beach diet, lots of hard outdoor exercise, and a lot of self-discipline, and with luck you may not need a tummy-tuck.
I do notice some small physical differences--my rib cage is a little bigger now. And the kids have certainly given me some gray hairs!
Please submit pictures so we can agree with your assessment! THANK YOU
The pictures would not be valid unless you also had pictures showing what I looked like pre-baby, twenty years ago. Will you take my ex-husband’s word for it, since he’s the only person alive who knows what my tummy looked like back then? ;-)
I’ll tell you, shovelling horse manure will do a lot for your physical condition. I ought to publish a fitness book called something like “Shovel Your Way to Skinniness” or “Horse S*** and Health.”
