Thanks so much. It makes sense what you are saying b/c if I tighten my stomach muscles, you can feel that my (rounded) belly is quite hard, thus the pregnancy look...it is unbelievable. I always think, "Awww, if I was really pregnant, it would look so cute in this shirt!" But...I'M NOT so I guess I have to face it that you probably hit the nail on the head...I need to lose some weight, particularly the weight in my mid-section. My stomach muscles are hopefully hiding somewhere under there. I am the worst at dieting. I know it should be a change of lifestyle but I guess I'm at a plateau b/c I worked so hard to stabalize with the IBS that I'm not motivated to work toward something else. I think I'll skip the ab exercises for a week or so and see what happens. Thanks.
