Can you stomach this?

The other day I got motivated to try to get my tummy back into shape. And by "back into shape" I mean "back to the flat yet still flabby stomach I once had." To do so, I decided I would start doing sit-ups and so I got down onto the floor and prepared myself for my first postpartum sit-up.

And what happened? Nothing. Nothing at all. I could barely even do a crunch. It was absolutely shocking how much I lacked any stomach muscles. I just would not move! I've never been great at sit-ups, but I could always do at least 20 or so (please, no applause, just throw money).

So I guess I have my work cut out for me. Hopefully soon I'll be able to get up from a lying position without being dependent on rolling over. =)
