I SWEAR by this!!! I didn't have to change my diet or anything! Just a short 30-45min work out before bed every night, granted you can work out whenever is best for you. With in the first few days to maybe a week (I started about 4-6weeks postpartum) I was being told how great I look and numerous people asked me how I lost the baby weight so quick!!
I know what you mean about the stretchmarks, mine are HUGE and deep. I also have stretchmarks in places I never knew you could get them!! I have them on my upper arms, my armpits, my boobs, about 3in above my belly button down to my baby maker!!!!, all the way around my waste they are as high as the ones on my belly!, my butt, my thighs && my calves!!!
They are huge, deep, and ugly, but I just think of my 2 beautiful babies.
Drink lots of water it makes your skin stretchier and may help your skin come back together where your stretchmarks are. I have been wanting to get Bio-Oil or a Mederma StretchMark cream, but I just don't have the money for it. If you do try a cream make sure you are using it faithfully (everyday!).
Good luck and just think of your 2 beautiful babies! :)
