Ok, this is a kinda lame question, but my stomach is flat except after I eat anything, my stomach totally sticks out. So, I can go to a restaurant in a cute dress cut to my body and then I eat and I look like a stick with a pea taped to the middle. Does anyone else experience this? I told you it was a dumb question, but it just annoys me.
Anyone with a flat gut get an after eating pooch?

I start off in the morning with great abs, but as soon as I start eating... pooch city. It is annoying.

That's why you guys need to start out the day with a pooch, like me. If it pooches a little bit more, no one notices. Plus they are so in awe of my wide back porch they don't even notice my poochy belly.
Oh god yes. I am the pooch -n- bloat QUEEN after I eat. Sometimes just after a few bites, it's amazing I'm able to force down as much as I do

That is SO funny! I am exactly the same way! I have to dress accordingly when I go anywhere because I know I won't look the same way after I have just a bite of something. I always look so good in the morning, but by nightime, I'm forced to put on sweats because of my after-dinner "pooch"!!!!
Me too!! Same problem.
This has often made me think about celebs and appearances/video filming, etc. It almost makes you think they either have to do an awful lot on a really empty stomach or they have their nutrition person put them on a special diet for several days before an event to get rid of bloating, pooching, etc. I've never seen a celebrity that has a "pooch" unless their pregnant and then they just look like me after I eat!!! LOL

Yep, except for the past few weeks my eating has been off. So I now have a little more than an after dinner pooch x(

I get that if I eat alot. I think almost everyone will get that at some point unless they ONLY ever eat very small amounts of food at one time....If there IS someone out there who can eat a good full meal and NOT get that, I want to meet them...so that I can shoot them!}( }( }(
LOL!
My DH is naturally very slender and even HE will get some form of a "gut" after eating enough!

Gosh! I totally hate it! I really dread eating at the beach cause you have that bathing suit on! But I have this trick,where I will lay all the way back in my lounge chair so my stomach looks all nice and flat!

I too feel like I've noticed actresses, reality tv people, whatever who seem to eat and don't look like they ate at all.
I remember when I was in my 20's and having a pool party, I would barely eat all day so I would look decent in my bikini. Sounds dumb now. All I need to do is a have a big glass of water and I look 4 months pregnant.
