Sleep

I've come to the conclusion that I need more sleep. During my pregnancy with baby penguin I gained a TOTAL of 4 pounds. Yes, 4. But I slept! Evey night I was in bed at 9pm. Mr. Penguin would rub lotion on my huge belly to help with the itchiness and then he'd read me to sleep.

I was also relaxed. And my sweet cravings went away during that time too. From what I've been reading that is also due to having adequate sleep.

Now that I've been sick and required to rest, I've lost 6 pounds. I think I'm on to something.

Go on a diet? Hell no!! I just need a nap. ;)

*hugs*
