J.-
Don't forget it took 9 months to have your little miracle so give yourself time to return to your former size. My brown tummy line took sometime to disappear but it did - completely and 4 times! The area around my belly button took the longest.
I did start exercising again and soon as i was able,and i got the OK from my doctor and I took it easy at first. Are you nursing? if so you will notice it does help things begin to constrict inside.
I have not heard of the flat belly diet. This is what i use to help stay fit, A protein/ fiber shake every morning, Tae- bo videos and running when possible- i also used a great creame on my belly to help the skin . Plus I remembered that during my normal day I was working my body simply taking care of my baby and all the household needs.
I'd be happy to give you more info on the exact products I use if you are interested.
Congrats on your little baby girl. I have 4 little girls and they are amazing!
