Yes, I am with you all on this one. What a terrible thing that the c-sections do to our bellies. Of course my children are SOOO worth it, however, I wish I could wear a sign that says, "This distention is due to the heroic birthing of two lovely children and NO, I am not pregnant again."  For me it is frustrating b/c I always used to have a firm, flat stomach that I could regard as my body's positive asset (whereas I was always working on my butt, hips...). The clothing thing is what drives me nuts. I wish I just had rolls instead of the roundedness b/c all those cute "maternity-looking" tops that are in style now REALLY make me look maternity.
Oh well, I have been trying to watch the gassy foods too and the Gasstop is really helping with the bloating. I just got a dvd called "Pilatio" and I did it today...pretty good but not sure if it will reduce the belly. I suppose it could be worse...I'm just so glad to not have d anymore so I shouldn't complain.
