What sort of exercise, physiotherapy or Yoga, you can suggest to reduce tummy. My age is 69.?

If your 69 it DOES matter.  My Mother is 69 and looking good is as important to her now as it was when she was 25, even more so!  You wouldn't believe the men that look at her (even while w/my Dad, married 47 years)  She says she doesn't notice but I do! (35)   She does the simplest things, as your watching TV, talking on the phone, standing in line, walking, anything..breathe deeply and hold in your stomache, keep holding but breathe normally, count to 10, release.  It's amazing that while doing normal stuff you can make a difference in your waistline and abdomen.  She does her own yoga, (stretching and holding).  She is not a gym go-er so I can't give advice on that but feeling good at 69 feels better than feeling good in your earlier years, you appreciate it more!  (I've also seen her lie on her back with feet raised for a period of time, she used to complain about her lower stomache sticking out...gone)

I also think exercise is the only way to tone muscles. Or electrical stimulation, if you have some money to spend.\n\nIn your situation, isotonic contractions of the muscles in the stomach area might help. That means that you contract your abdomen muscles and keep them contracted for a while (the longer the better) while u do ur usual stuff, talk to people etc. The method is far from being fast, but I think you will have some additional benefits (as for any other exercise, the brain will probably release serotonine, which is a hormone that makes you feel happy).\n\nOtherwise you should ask a trained professional - kynetotherapist or the like. Good luck and all the best to you! And all my respect for what you try to do.

Tuck your tummy at all times. Try tucking and releasing several times when you're sitting, and when you're walking keep it tucked and turn your waist slighty from side to side with every step.

Hi!\nWhat really helps is keeping your weight down and your abdominal muscles up (you don't have to have a 6-pack, or a hard as rock tummy, just excercise it enough). I've discovered that if I control those two, the pain and crisis just go away. \nREALLY.\n\nGoodluck!

Work out and concentrate on your mid section and lift weights and increase protein consumption some.  When I had my children the OB doc gave me literature about loosing the belly flab and I used it and had flatter stomach than before kids.  Call yours and see if they have some.  Leg lifts seemed especially helpful for me while tucking my butt muscles.  But seriously check with MD that delivered your last baby for exercises.  I'll bet they would mail them to you.

I would agree with the swimming as it use  all your muscles and has the water for buoyancy, start slowly and as time goes on then build up you will find it will tone and the endorphins will make you feel great.\n\nOther wonderful exercise is walking maybe getting off the bus at a stop before you own then walking to your office,going out on the weekends with friends or a partner walking somewhere this will help keep your bones healthy and is good cardio vascular.\n\nWhat about Pilate's I have become hooked and in a period of six weeks I can see a difference and it works wonders for your stomach!\n\nWhat ever exercise you choose make sure it is one you enjoy as the worse thing is doing it and finding reasons not to continue.If the weight does not shift do not get despondent because it goes on quicker than coming off, just keep going and the results will appear.\n\nOther thought a bike ride in good weather what a great way to move around and keep healthy.\n\nYour eating sounds fine drink loads of water.\n\nJust put your mind to it call it changing your life style and looking after your body for the future.\n\nGood Luck \nYou can do it....

Buy an ABLounger.  The exercise is not strenuous, and you really will see results.\n\nYou have another 6 months before you will be happy with your body...but you will be happy.\n\nDrink the 8 glasses of water each day, and try to get 8 hours sleep...even if it is 2 hours at a time.\n\nFor now, wear a one-piece with tummy control.  Everyone will understand, so don't worry about it!\n\nEnjoy your baby!

Hi   Sorry to hear such a young person as you are having these problems with exercise. I am 64 and exercise evry day. Even a walk of a mile or so is better than nothing. You should make an appointment with your primary care physician and explain your problems . A primary care doctor will be able to make a good evaluation of your problems and the steps to get you back on the road to feeling good. Diet and exercise are the longterm solutions with the guidance of healthcare professional help !!! Good luck !!p. s. dont go looking for a quick fix solution....there are none .

Here's my advice and the cold hard truth - if your going to buy an abs machine the only thing its going to do is tighten your muscles if you have some fat in the tummy area its not going to get rid of it. The only way to get rid of the jelly belly is thru total body loss. A good way to have great abs is through Cardio which will trim away the fat and then strength excercises which is good for your abdominal muscles.

I'd say try to aviod dairy products. \n\nAnd try to get more istonic drinks to hydrate yourself.\n\nTake liquid foods, porriage, soups (not creamy ones) if not Lomotil should do the trick.\n\nConsult a doctor if you're tummy is still giving you problems.\n\nTake care!

In my view,  Yoga  is a wonderful  way to keep supple of body and spirit...Wt lifting ...excellent!  but....  add a brisk 25-30 min walk each day and  drop sugar and fried foods from your diet  and you really have something!  This can lower cholesterol  and  B/P  and keep your skin looking  bright and healthy   because  maybe ...you are...and can be perhaps for a very long time...Oh  you don't drink excessively  or do  harmful drugs, of course...you see the glass as 1/2 FULL etc  ...

it's tuff because it will take longer now that you've got major healing to do.  Make sure your body is working right and you are getting the proper nutrition.  Once you have all the right nutrients going into your body, do a little something extra in your routine like taking the stairs instead of the elevator and park your car at the far end of the parking lot and things like that to add exercizes to your day.  Squat instead of bending over to pick something up which will help you decrease your size and tone your legs.  (the more you work in the better).  Hold your tummy in because that strengthens tummy muscles.  and check out a supplement called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).  It's very wonderful at burning abdominal fat!  Good luck!

Tummy tuck.  No other way to get rid of it if it is hanging.  Recovery not too bad.

Exercise more and cut down on excess food- try eating a balanced diet of protein, fat and carbs. Pilates and sit ups are excellent tummy reducers and low impact cardio is good too. Jogging at a low impact, swimming, etc... When your heart rate is low is when you are burning fat..
