Word of advise to all of you out there on a diet: Try not to spend too much time with pregnant women!! A good friend of mine is about 5 1/2 months pregnant, and in the last four days I’ve gained two pounds. She has to eat every couple of hours or she gets sick, but she never wants to eat alone. “Oh come on”, she says, “just get a little something so I don’t feel bad stopping”. Then when I say “no, I’m trying to be good”, she replies with a “never mind, I won’t get anything”. Next thing you know we’re pulled over on the side of route 41, and she’s throwing up! So, we finally stop at an ice cream shop, no less (because I’ve given in and said I’ll get something), and she asks me what I want. I let her know I’ll have a small cup of chocolate and she proceeds to order me a peanut butter cup sundae. I’d like to say it was torture, but the truth is it was great… like I said, never diet with a pregnant woman! I’m determined to stay away from her this weekend and at least get rid of the two pounds I put BACK ON.

Ouch. That definitely makes sticking to your plan a little more difficult. Next time you meet up with her pack a container of carrot sticks or something
I may have to try that for my diet’s sake… otherwise I’ll end up gaining more weight than she will!
