The Tummy Team works! It truly does!
Before doing the Tummy Team:
I was 33, my third daughter was 2 years old, and I still looked quite
pregnant. Not because I was overweight but because I had no muscle tone
in my stomach. I had had enough! Even more important than how I
looked was how awful I felt! My back constantly ached. I had to see
the chiropractor regularly because my spine & ribs kept popping out
of place.
My formerly "regular" bowels were sluggish and causing constipation
(and further strain on the hemorrhoids I had developed during my second
pregnancy). My posture was horrible and looked really sloppy. Overall I
just felt unhealthy and unattractive! My husband and I were planning
to conceive our fourth child soon, but I really wanted to get my core
strong BEFORE I had another baby stretch my tummy out again. I wanted
to feel stronger during this next pregnancy, not to mention push more
effectively. I also knew doing the Tummy Team before pregnancy would
help me get my core strength back quicker after pregnancy.
During the Tummy Team: I love Kelly! She is such a likable gal,
and so very knowledgeable. She was super encouraging and helped me to
progress in my core strength, but without being bossy or harsh. The
educational videos were excellent. I did the Tummy Team with a group of
gals, and ALL of us had incredible results. We are talking diastasis
closed, bowel-control, urinary-control, posture and spinal problems
remedied or greatly lessened! Most of the gals even lost several inches
off their waistline! I would highly recommend doing your Tummy Team
rehabilitation with or at the same time as another person. We all
communicated via a Facebook group during our 6 weeks, and it was
incredibly helpful to have encouragement and accountability from others
"in the same boat."
After the Tummy Team: Talk about results! I went from having a
separation of 3 to 3.5 and medium-deep down my tummy, to being 1 to 1.5
and shallow! (1 is closed, so I only had a half-of-a-finger width
separation left!) My posture was great and I felt so much more
confident about myself. My back problems virtually went away, and my
bowel issues greatly improved. And, as an added bonus, I lost 4" off my
waistline.....without losing a single pound! So as you can see, I am a
huge believer in the Tummy Team. I have literally recommended it to
dozens of people!
Update as of Six Months Later: I am currently 5 months pregnant
with baby girl #4 (yay!), and have felt so much stronger during this
pregnancy! I truly believe that my knowledge of my core will greatly
help with pushing this little girl out efficiently. And after this
little one is born I can't wait to use my belly splint and my
core-strengthening exercises to get my core health back! The Tummy Team
is truly a gift that keeps on giving throughout a lifetime. Still so
grateful for Kelly and the Tummy Team!
