I mean, giving birth can be one of the most challenging and painful tasks a woman might undertake in her life. But it has nothing to do with how much food you eat afterwards. I weigh the same as I did when my husband and I met. And that's after 3 kids. Why would I want to be pudgy and gross? He keeps his body nice for me. I want to look my best for him too. I hate it when women use the pregnancy excuse for being twice the size a woman should be. No Sally, you're not 300 pounds of adipose because you gave birth to little Jonny. You're that fat because of your starbeetus habit.
