Separated abdominal muscles (rectus diastasis) are common among mothers and major weight loss patients. These weakened core muscles can cause you to have poor posture, making you look more overweight because you have lost the capacity and strength needed to properly hold in your inside organs, fat, muscle, etc. She is pictured only 3 months after her procedures. Patients are always concerned with the prospect of their abdominal scar, but the trade off to gain the body shape they've always desired is well worth it!
