I feel like I'm plateauing, though. I want to try something more intensive, maybe Tummy Team, but not for a few months yet.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15283395756742923658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2949422246633548404.post-7737356587387930132014-04-09T05:58:40.477+04:002014-04-09T05:58:40.477+04:00Thanks for your comment on my blog!

It's not out of the question, but it's a pretty big jump! Have you had much success with Fit2B? I've enjoyed doing their workouts this past week, but wonder if I'm going to need the more intensive (and costly) Tummy Team program to see results. Either way, best of luck!Dillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298538268367571164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2949422246633548404.post-16216815967933535122013-09-08T00:09:30.411+04:002013-09-08T00:09:30.411+04:00I'm pretty confused about what is normal these...I'm pretty confused about what is normal these days. I think I was told to expect to look about 5 months pregnant when I left the hospital. Depending on how you carried the baby, fitting into your pants might not be a problem. I think I could fit into skinny jeans about 2 months later, despite the stomach protrusion.<br /><br />I have the kind of metabolism where I would have lost the weight very quickly, and did for the most part, which makes the diastasis all the more awkward for my slim frame. There is no saggy and baggy, just a round tummy.<br /><br />Also, there is breastfeeding weight.<br />Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15283395756742923658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2949422246633548404.post-50870861678310806122013-09-06T16:37:27.497+04:002013-09-06T16:37:27.497+04:00Wow!

I'm really impressed at every aspect of this - your persistence, the way you trusted your intuition, the way you had some reservations about the medical advice and sharing it all! <br /><br />Actually, I stumbled somehow on a Princess Kate story wondering why SHE still had "baby bump" this late in the day - so maybe you've diagnosed her, too! <br /><br />And, then there is Anastasia, who left the hospital in her regular jeans, and looked like maybe she'd had a big meal. I would have guessed that rail-slim women would a) have a difficult time in childbirth and b) would look saggy and baggy afterwards. She proved me wrong on both counts.
