That and I tend to find that if you like your legs and
butt - you hate your belly. And, if you like your belly, I bet you hate your hips and/or legs and butt.
I agree with everything Gamber said and yes, even before children, I wished I had a flatter addomen. But hey, I like my legs, butt, arms, back, shoulders so I guess you just can't have everything - but you can still try. Seriously though, I think it can be done with very strict and rigid dieting but who wants to stop menustrating to achieve that look? And, chocolate just has to have some place in my life.
The other thing is that the pooch is also loose and stretched skin from pregnancy and I think short of surgery, there is no way to get rid of some of it. Good genetics definitely play a role here too I think.
Just my thoughts this evening.
