I have to say I hate my belly.... it hangs from the scar of the c-section, I don't think I would be so bothered about it not being flat etc (don't think I've ever had a flat belly anyway) but I hate the fact that it hangs.

Might have to try the twist though as you suggested Vickimom and see if that works.  Wish I'd known about it yesterday I was ironing for ages.

I have just started to to 15 minutes of Yoga everyday though which is def helping with the stiffness and backaches that I was having problems with so hopefully it will help with the belly as well.

I already do about 1 - 2 hours of walking everyday because of the dog and that's not helping (or doesn't seem to be) so I need to do something.

helen c i totally agree,im soooo under weight too and im trying to put it on,im 5ft2" and weigh just under 7stone,i went onto the injection to try help put weight on me but no joy! i havent excersised for yrs either so i dunno what my problem is,i just look scrawny,but luckily my belly went back to shape so it aint saggy etc but i hope to keep it that way if i manage to put weight on so the twist sounds like a good idea.....

love from lorry n bronze xxxx

Mamma2bronze. Its nice to know some one feels the same as I do. At the momment I weigh 8lb 2oz. I have now been this weight for 10 years and it gets harder to know why?  I eat like a horse I am now in size 8/6 i have even gone on the injection like you did...but when I spoke to the Nurse the other day I was saying " but everyone else on it say's they have put weight on" she said "who is going to complain if there on the injecton and lose weight!!" Ok point taken...

My tummy is not to bad I guess considering I'v had 3 kids..
