Hi, Just wonderin about exercise and excess skin. Its a concern of mine even though I havent had surgery yet.

So, for those of you that did exercise/weight train, did you have alot of excess skin?

What about those that didnt workout?

I know there are alot of other factors like age, weight, etc.. But I'd like to do my best to prevent it as much as I could.

If any of you have any other tips and tricks, please let me know!

Yea, I figured as much. Some people on here swear by them. I was popping those things like candy and got nothing from them. Walking is your best bet. The gas pains usually begin to subside by day 3 or 4 and the spasms are usually gone by the 1 week mark.

I'm glad I don't have to give birth!

Lol! Thanks for the laugh

I went to Dr Munoz he's an excellent doctor I was going to use dr wizman but he was not personable...Dr Munoz is so patient and extremely experienced
