I have a different experience. I never had a really flat stomach, no matter how much or how little I weighed until I started doing three things: walk/run four or five days a week, Pilates three days a week, and Atkins every day of the week. I think it was the Pilates thrown in there that made the difference, because I've dieted and exercised before, but this is the first time I've done Pilates.
Yes, I've had a c-section.
I use the Gaiam Pilates kit (available at Target for $30) that has a video tape and resistance bands. Then just get yourself a yoga mat and you're in business.
I swear it works. I've never, never, not even when I was young, had a stomach like this. Just be sure to follow instructions and keep your stomach pulled in when you do the exercises.
Good luck!
