I am more concerned about the scar tissue giving her pain.. Sux
18 years after my section, my scar STILL hurts! Some of the problem may be adhesions, and there's not alot you can do about that without causing more of the same. Good luck to her, wish I had some good advice.
Nice to hear some comments about women's weight from men who are talking about REAL women. Not chicks in mags, or celebrities.
I just lost about fifteen pounds. Easy. Nothing to it. I count what goes in (I have an excel program that does it for me.) As long as it matches what goes out, there's no problem. Since I'm kinda slow right now (bad ankle) it would have been even easier if I could have worked hard physically.
BUT.

It took me about three years to get in that frame of mind, again.
I've been watching my weight since I was 13. Up and down, up and down....usually around 10 pounds. At the time, if I wanted to lose weight, I would eat 800 calories. That's what it took.
When women age, have kids, etc. their metabolism changes. Their hormones change. Hell, even my FEET changed due to hormones, I went up a whole shoe size due to length! I tried to diet like I did, felt sicker than a dog....very discouraging. I like to work hard, can't do that when you are essentially starving yourself. Finally I found out what worked for ME.
oops....got an order to get out.....to be continued......
