Rain75 if belly is not the same after pregnancy get checked for a diastasis recti. These are even found 10 years after preganancy in a lot of female back patients! You can actually check yourself. if you have small one nothing dangerous but there are certain exercises you would want to avoid (like sit ups and crunches) working lower abdominals CORRECTLY is crucial. I notice a lot of women in the pilates courses are doing exercises that they are not quite ready for. If your belly bulges when you do them, you are not doing correctly. Best bet is to find women's health physical therapist that works a lot with postpartum population. You end up more susceptible to injuries when you have a lot of pelvic instability.

GRlonfr: good instructors are so important and hard to come by! LOL about the D diet. I lost more weight on this then I did for my wedding! I love it, but it will be hard to maintain unless I start doing something now. You know what's funny though, I was actually jealous of all the women I work with and my friends that have some excess weight because I thought to myself "sigh they must be really happy"
