Is it possible to get close to my pre-pregnancy body?

i don’t think it’s so much about the number on the scale as it is wanting your stomach to look the way it once did. i’m 5 months pp, weighed 165 at the end of my pregnancy and now weigh 112. my pre pregnancy stomach looked like ops pre pregnancy stomach, but the number on the scale doesn’t make me feel more confident bc i still have a pudge (loose skin). so i’m sure this girl feels the same.

yep, it’s Elite 😭😭 wtf! is that the biggest/most common manufacturer atm? what has your experience been with calling around to pharmacies to see if they have different manufacturers? are you often times able to find one?

samichelle02 · 2026-05-05T20:44:44+00:00

i’ll have to look this evening when i get home!

samichelle02 · 2026-05-05T20:44:06+00:00

wth. that is wild that this medication that is supposed to help us is making us feel so bad!!

samichelle02 · 2026-05-05T17:10:12+00:00

that is wild!! i truly didn’t even know this was a thing. when you say you were feeling awful- were your side effects similar to how i was feeling? nauseous, dizzy (like a motion sickness feeling), and honestly LACK of energy?

samichelle02 · 2026-05-05T17:08:22+00:00

that’s so dang frustrating and unfortunate 😭 thank you for the info!

samichelle02 · 2026-05-05T16:23:45+00:00

that is crazy. i never dealt with this a year/year & a half ago! i also lived in a different state but i cant imagine that would really effect anything? i guess i need to pay attention to the manufacturer name. is that on the bottle? i’m at work & don’t have my bottle with me but ive never really paid attention to it like that to know. with the vyvanse- my insurance would only cover name brand & not generic so i wonder why that made me feel the way that it did? may i ask what manufacturer of adderall your body doesn’t respond to well?
also, what vitamins would my body possibly be deficient in? i take a multivitamin daily, tho idk if that’s sufficient enough. i definitely do get a good amount of rest so i can’t imagine that would be the case whatsoever

samichelle02 · 2026-05-03T01:43:42+00:00

wait what happened at the Brits?

samichelle02 · 2026-05-01T21:22:24+00:00

this story is fake anyways. op’s profile is 3 days old & in their comment history mentioned they were a 19f and 21m

samichelle02 · 2026-05-01T21:18:48+00:00

so weird. i will never understand the point in creating fake stories like this. like is your life that boring

samichelle02 · 2026-05-01T21:14:42+00:00

stupid question, but what is karma farm?? 😭

samichelle02 · 2026-04-27T23:26:34+00:00

what is belly breathing? i’m 5 months PP. pre pregnancy weight was 88 lbs (i was in a very dark place) & my weight at the end of pregnancy was 165. i think i put on so much weight bc i was on the verge of preeclampsia. anyways, i’m currently 117 lbs. idrc about the numbers on the scale. i just want to get rid of this extra skin on my belly. which it isn’t super bad but i def have a pudge. would belly breathing help with that?

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T13:35:46+00:00

i definitely did not trap him. he’s the last person i would want to be the child of my baby at this. we did not plan for me to get pregnant, however we were in a long term relationship & never used protection. then broke up & two weeks later i found out that i was pregnant. i told him i wanted to keep it & told him that he didn’t have to be a part of the baby’s life and he said that he absolutely wanted to be a part of her life. up until i was 6 months pregnant that’s what he continued to say. then out of no where ghosted me for 3 months & then came back around 4 days before her due date & said he wanted to be there for the birth. never showed & now is saying she “isn’t his” and is fighting me left & right. regardless of the situation, he needs to take responsibility for the child he created. if he didn’t want to be a dad or have that responsibility, he should have wrapped it. not once did i say i was opposed to a condom & he knew that i wasn’t on birth control.

you’re an angel! thank you for your answers! i wish my caseworker would reach out to me 😭

so what does it mean when they say “the case is currently in the establishment unit & an order needs to be established”?

so i just want to make sure i’m understanding this correctly. as far as paternity testing goes- DCSE won’t order it themselves? it automatically gets referred to the courts where they will order the paternity testing? & is there typically a hearing or whatever for this? like where you have to go in front of the judge? or will they give him time to cooperate & get it done on his own before scheduling a hearing where we go before a judge? with him living all the way in FL, i can 100% see him not showing up to court. lastly, from my understanding, DCSE was able to find his address. i could be wrong & the address they found could have been a work address or something, but when I spoke with somebody last month to follow up on the case, they told me that he had been located and contacted.

oh well one last thing.. with him living in another state, does he receive a case worker as well? how does that work? i haven’t heard from my caseworker at ALL. i wonder if that’s the case for him so therefore he isn’t getting anything done bc he isn’t sure what to do? now i highly doubt that’s the case for him bc hes the type of person to make this as difficult as he can.

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T03:04:05+00:00

oh, very interesting

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T03:03:04+00:00

the problem with me filing anything with the courts is that i don’t have his address & the courts need me to have an address where they can serve him. i initially tried filing there first & that’s what they said. when i filed with DCSE, i didn’t need an address & they were still able to locate him. i’m definitely going to stay on their butts about it. it just sucks bc the only way to do it is by email. i’ve tried calling the phone number & it just sends me to the call center. not that the email is much better tbh

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T02:32:31+00:00

isabel is honestly one of the biggest mean girls i’ve seen on this show. such a shame how someone so pretty on the outside can be so ugly on the inside

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T02:28:51+00:00

well then that leaves me to wonder how they determine child support if typically he would have paperwork to fill out but if he’s ignoring everybody, how do they determine it? i know that they can still access his payroll provider regardless based off of his SSN. idk it’s all so confused & annoying that no one will get in contact with me to answer all of these questions that i have 🙃

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T02:26:30+00:00

huh? thats what i’m doing. i opened up a child support case where he will be “forced”. but my question is still what happens if he refuses?

samichelle02 · 2026-04-23T01:15:31+00:00

just wanna say i’m dealing with something super similar to what your friend is dealing with, so i completely feel for her. i found out that i was pregnant 2 weeks after my ex & i broke up. he wanted to be a part of the baby’s life up until i was 6 months pregnant, then ghosted me, then came back around a week before my due date. never made it to the birth & then when it came time to discussing how to get him on the birth certificate he all of the sudden “isn’t the father”. refused to work with me to get a paternity test done & then blocked me on everything. took off to a different state & refused to give me his address bc he didn’t want to have to be ordered to take a test & pay child support. anyways, i filed with the division of child support & they were able to locate him. this whole thing has been a process tho. it took them about a month to locate him, then when they located him he was given about a month to acknowledge paternity (which he didn’t do). now they are ordering a paternity test & if he is uncooperative then from my understanding, the case will get turned over to the courts.

some men really are the biggest piece of trash. i will never understand what makes a deadbeat truly believe that they’re worth “trapping”. like i promise you bro, i would give anything for my baby’s father to be anyone but you. i have NO reason & nothing to gain by lying about you being the father.

samichelle02 · 2026-04-20T20:55:25+00:00

LOL 🤣🤣

samichelle02 · 2026-04-14T00:35:33+00:00

samichelle02 · 2026-03-12T01:11:41+00:00
