Alternatives to the Mommy Job?

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have any good Alternatives to the "Mommy-Job"? I don't want surgery, which is a bit too much for me, but I do want to get rid of the rolls of fat on my stomach post-baby. My weight is actually fine, and I exercise and eat well. BUt, the skin on my stomach is stretched out, and kind of slack--just wrinkled and won't snap back, just kind of rolls of it on my stomach. It's really hard to make it to go away. Any luck anyone else out there?

As far as I know, there is no alternative to surgery to remove the extra skin. Unless you just delivered in the past 6 weeks, your skin isn't going to snap back.

I only have a small roll that I'd like to get rid of, but my plastic surgeon won't operate b/c it's not "bad enough" to warrant it. She just recommends high waisted jeans, sadly.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm 3.5 years post-baby, and it's not getting any better. I'm also 5'7 and 128 lbs, so it's not fat, just skin. I think the thinner you are, actually, the more pronounced the sagging skin too.
