Mom of 4. 32 yrs old. I have lost 25lbs. Vaginal deliveries, and tubal ligation in 2013 after my last child was born. I was diagnosed with syndrome x, put on metformin August 8th 2015. So that possibly may need more time to work as well. I am on a gluten free diet and no more sodas and junk food. I do small amounts of work outs, planks, sit ups, etc. But have yet to see results. Am I being to impatient? My breasts have remained upright and perky. Its just this stubborn pouch!

Answer: How do I get rid of the mom pouch? Lipo? Tummy tuck? (Photo) Since you have had four children, part of your pooch is most likely due to stretching or separation of your abdominal muscles. Therefore, I think you will achieve your best cosmetic appearance with a tummy tuck combined with abdominal liposuction. Good luck!

Answer: Tummy tuck or lipo? Without an examination, it is hard to tell how much of your "mom pouch" is due to fat and how much is due to weakness of the stomach muscles following your pregnancies. Liposuction can get rid of fat but it won't tighten up the stomach muscles. That would require a tummy tuck. Based on your pictures, I would think that you are a better candidate for a tummy tuck but I would suggest scheduling a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can examine you in person and review your options with you.
