Indulge

Now that I am only 1.5 weeks away, my body is clearly not my own. I have this layer of fat all over, which although makes me feel sluggish and *ahem* not so sexy, I can somehow think of it as good. I know that most of this fat will be channeled into the milk and will help produce a nice fat little baby. And of course, there's the huge belly that I often underestimate and bang into doors, tables, and Caleb's head. I have up until recently tried to eat sensibly. But lately, I find myself having thoughts like "Well, I've only got a few more weeks of having an excuse to indulge. Might as well take advantage." or "I've already gained so much, what's another 5 pounds?"

So, at night, instead of having one or two pieces of See's candy for dessert, I have three pieces... and a mochi ice cream... and a big bowl of watermelon... and a popsicle. And last night, I ate a foot long sandwich at Subway, instead of my usual six inch sub. Shane didn't think I'd finish it. But, I did.

LOL! Your post made Derrek and I laugh. especially the hitting Caleb in the head with your belly. It sounds like you are at least enjoying the last few days of being pregnant and that is great. I think I would be doing the same thing in terms of eating too! you go girl and eat all the Sees candy you want, while you have a very valid excuse. After all Ana needs to get some See's candy fix too! =)

Good for you. Eat up. Make a nice, fat papoose.

Did you get the pattern?

Hahahaha! I so relate to that! It will all be over soon, and you'll be too busy to eat that much, so eat up, girl!
