Plus, I came down with gestational diabetes. Counting carbs has really helped any further weight gain, though. I think I've gained 1 lb in the last five weeks.

Plans for after this kids decides to pop out: Dad got me a jogger stroller, and I'm so looking forward to putting that to good use. Plus, I'm going to keep on counting my carbs. PLUS, breastfeeding burns calories! Yeah! (TMI, I'm sure.)

Breastfeeding burns a mountain of calories. You can sit around and do nothing and lose weight
