Sure, I'll take bets on the baby. It's not like I'm going to see money from it, so g'head, place yer bets.

Winna gets, uhh, my undying affection?
Though, the bet I'm more interested in - is how many pounds will *I* drop just after she's born?! I'm betting on twenty pounds. The rest, I'll claim responsibility for. As soon as I get home, get un-IV'ed and lose all the water I'll undoubtedly have in the hospital (along with any other freebies, like a blood transfusion!), I'll add a weight ticker back up. I'm thinking I'm going to be starting at about 175 lbs for my "re-diet." It Could Be Worse. Really. I was really close to pushing that before I got hugely pregnant anyway. My previous 150 lbs as goal, 130-135 lbs after plastic surgery goal. The smallest I ever saw was 147 lbs for like, a day. I hovered near 160-165 lbs for the longest time pre-two-pregnancies, so it's all very do-able. Nursing a baby steals about 500 calories per day, and I can't physically eat too too much, so it means I will still be able to eat actual FOOD as long as I'm a moo-cow for the babe, and probably will lose weight just by that. I do plan on eating better (bye bye empty calories, at least most of 'em), and charting my meals on Fitday again. I may sub some meals with protein bars or shakes, which I gave up completely during pregnancy (depending on chemicals in them, and if I'm making enough milk...)
