If you have been reading this blog for a while you will know that I am a curvy gal. I have been for a while - probably the last eight years or so, when I had my twins and started eating a pack of tim tams a day - it was the only food I didn't have to prepare and could eat one handed!
This despite the fact that it was my healthiest pregnancy - I was on a no sugar diet as I didn't want to get pre-eclampisa or have to stay in bed, drank about 3 litres of water a day and didn't even look at alcohol. Exercise was a chore - my hips almost gave out on me due to hormones softening everything, and all I could manage was a lap around my local shopping centre - it was air conditioned and being pregnant with twins in Queensland heat in summer is not fun I also managed to to float around the pool a bit, which was lovely as I actually felt weightless for once.
