All of a sudden I am finally starting to look really – you’ll never guess – pregnant! My stomach has finally exploded outside of its normal, acceptable boundaries and now looks as though it is lurching forward to desperately grasp the finish line in some unknown, mysterious race against the rest of my body. This, combined with the fact that I still have an entire 17 weeks left in this pregnancy, compels me sit down and have a little heart to heart discussion with my stomach, one that might sound something along the lines of DUDE, EASE UP, WE HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO HERE.
I don’t so much mind looking round and pregnant in my midsection, but what I do have an issue with is the jiggly arms and thighs that I have recently discovered. (Or maybe I just finally acknowledged it? Ignorance really is bliss.) Now, I’m not usually one to point fingers, but Mr. Edy? This is all you, man.
So as of recently (read: today) I have tried to eliminate the junk from my diet and replace it with more wholesome, healthy foods. This morning I replaced my usual breakfast of Reese’s Peanut Butter Puffs cereal with Cinnamon Life cereal, at lunch I ate some carrots and a turkey sandwich, and then for dinner I had this:

In case you can’t tell, it’s peanut butter and chocolate chips. Oh, and there’s an apple under there, too. Does this count as healthy? I’m not really sure, but do I know that apples contain fiber, peanut butter contains protein, and chocolate chips contain deliciousness, so therefore I’m choosing to believe that INDEED, NUTRITIOUS.

Have you considered the Grape Kool-Aid Explosion??? I’t is so delicious and will make you mouth sing. (However it has been off the menu since 2001)
I tried to add a picture of it so you could see it in all it’s gloriousness but I wasn’t allowed to.
Sooo Good

I recommend pizza and cheeseburgers as the best way to incorporate all the food groups into one meal.
