does anyone else have it? like a pouch of fat below your waistline? some call it mystery meat, i call it front butt. how do you get rid of it?? is it because i had a c-section?? if not, what causes it?
Yep, I've got it. I think a twin pregnancy combined with a c-section just made it inevitable. I don't think there's anything I can do about mine, the skin just has no elasticity...really gross. Someday when I'm rich I'm gonna have a tummy tuck!
Yup, I has it. I plan on having 2 more kids then signing my butt up for laser fat removal. Then maybe laser stretch mark removal. I'm too young to have the cottage cheese abs.
I have it too....it looks much worse now with #2 on the way. I put on maternity pants and I was like OMG I have an ass in the front too. I really need those zippers in the middle. I just have to remember maternity shirts are long. I blame it on the 10lber and c/s.
Sorry no paragraphs, bumping from my phone.
I once had a picture until the trolls showed up.

"If we weren't all crazy we would go insane."
Well, I have it and didn't have a c-section, but I am also 100 pounds overweight. When I got pregnant with DS I was 70 pounds overweight, but hadn't started carrying a lot of that weight in my tummy. It was mostly my butt thighs etc. After I stretched my tummy out with the pregnancy I think the fat just RAN there and that's where most of the extra 30 pounds went!
It is definitely worse when I'm wearing pants without the zipper!
I'm going to work a LOT harder at keeping the weight off this time. I lost it all last time plus some within 6 weeks PP but I ended up putting it all back on by 6 months. RIDICULOUS! I finally had figured out a diet that was working and lost about 15 pounds when I got pregnant. But this time I'll stick to it, then when I'm done having kids DH and I decided we'd start investing in a "make mommy pretty again" fund. LOL
