jelly belly

Hi ladies has anyone found anything that can help with this belly from hell , where did it come from i was a nice trim 14 now i look 8 months pregnant  any ideas

I hope you get some replies because I have the same problem! No matter what I do, it doesn't seem to make much difference. My doctor didn't give me much hope. She basically said it is how our bodies redistribute fat after menopause. But I don't want it redistributed. I want it gone!

Aw Karen, I have the same problem I ve always been a size 10 with a flat stomach,now when I look in the mirror i just see a role of fat around my stomach and hips,it's like it happened over night !!! I don't even eat half the rubbish I used to.I have idea why I just wanted to let you know you re not alone x

Thanks sweetie,crazy i am just going with the flow cant beat it so why fight it  lets hope it gets sorted . oh to be a size 10  that was pre childre n ha ha 

:Hi Karen   ditto!  Up until about 6 mths ago I was a size 6-8 and am now a 10-12 which is fine.  I wouldn't mind being a 16 with curves, but it's just this big belly as you say.  I have bits that wobble independently now and I don't even have the luxury of hips!  Love to hear how you get on xx

I feel you it happened to me overnight too and it's so depressing. I have MS too so I can't even exercise that much anymore. Good luck to you.

Hi daisy, i have decided its not my tummy sticking out but my boobs have dropped and are resting on my tummy i already had ha ha ,lets not worry about these things lets just go with it cant think of what else to do ,it oesnt help when my husband says ooo come here  then hugs my tummy hah men if only they new how we felt........bless him x  

Oh Karen  I get you lol!  My partner is the same.  He grabs hold of my tummy when we are cuddling up and I cringe I hate it so much but he says he loves it!  ( No me neither!) xx

we both have men that dont mind it maybe we should not worry so much  and just be gratefull we get hugs  , my husband says look i have a tummy like that and just laughs he says if he doesnt mind his i shouldnt mind mine ,ah men  they just dont get it x

I am definitely your jelly belly sister! I also look 8 months pregnant! but, I am happy to report that I have lost weight despite the jelly belly. Not to be defeated I joined a free weight loss program and have dropped weight and feel better. 

Avoid salt, that really helps the jelly belly flourish. it becomes the belly from helly!

I've dropped carbs, sugar, salt and it is feeling Okay. Sometimes it's way up and huge other days it is around 5 months. Just love it, do some yoga and be kind to yourself and wear lovely flowing tops that hide it when it is out of control. I hope this helped. xx
