The term "baby weight."
According to modern medicine a person who is a healthy weight before getting pregnant should gain 25-30 lbs. Only 7 of which consist of maternal fat stores. So, gaining 50 lbs was... ungainly? Yet, ironically, it's those last 7 lbs that I struggle to shed. However, this is not baby weight. No. This is "You're lazy, you eat french fries, did you really just consume that much cookie dough?!" weight.
This is my apology to Owen. I'll stop blaming you for the extra weight. Let's be honest, I was looking for any excuse to stop dieting, and you were a really good one. It's not your fault.
Now I'm off to try and lose my "food baby" weight.
