yes you can exercise your abs but abs are made in the kitchen. Exercise will not give you a flat tummy only diet will do that.

Yes that's true but you're talking aesthetics. Having a strong core is still important as its foundational to many other exercises as well as your daily activities. [/quote]

Yes, I am taking aesthetics because that is what OP asked about. She  stated that she has a strong core and is looking to "lose the belly" and that is all about fat loss.

had she asked about having a strong core I would have given exercise recommendations. [/quote]

It's the OP.  I mentioned I also plan to lose 10-15 lbs but....It's not just about fat loss because the muffin top was still there when I was at a lower weight and running half marathons. I do have a pretty strong core with the activities I do but wasn't doing any exercises to target the ab region.

I definitely had weaker abs after pregnancy, so much so that I never got back to any regular ab exercise. I even occasionally had a twinge of pain just getting out of bed or going from sit to stand- like a hernia. It seemed lower abs were more of a problem that lower.

[b]Anyway for the last 3 days I started working on lower abs, and I already look more toned! The muffin top looks less creased and I don't feel like I'm going to herniate anymore.[/b]

I think it's like having strong pecs to support your chest. Breasts are also just fat but I find I don't look as saggy because of strong pecs.

Anyway, thanks for all who suggested exercises. Will keep these up for sure and report back.[/quote]

:lol: That is mental. There is no way you "look more toned" form doing 3 days of ab exercises. 
You may look better if you changed your diet especially after the holiday bloat is gone but no one is getting "toned" in 3 days. [/quote]
