Help me locate a recent post re stomach exercises?

Hi all,

I can't find a post I read recently and hope you can help.  Someone posted about her experience in getting her stomach back in shape despite having been told it was not possible - or at least not likely after bowel surgery and I think also an ileostomy reversal.  I wanted to re-read that and now I can't find it.  The post had lots of detail about the type of exercises she did etc. as well as a comment about the feedback from her doctor.

Can anyone point me to that post?   

thanks all

Connie

And sure enough I could pull it in and hold it for 5 to 10 seconds.

When I showed my surgeon what I did to tighten these stomach muscles he was amazed it was as flat as it was.

Wow, though, I'd love to have that flat stomach back. This was almost 11 years ago! I've been enjoying food more since then.....he he
