Carbohydrates Are Good

Since Ben was born I have been wanting to lose all the weight I gained while pregnant. But when I realized that I would have to give up bread and ice cream I decided that it wasn't such a good idea. I'm just not that strong. And besides, breast feeding makes me so damn hungry all the time. There are mythical stories about pregnancy cravings, but in my book NOTHING rivals the hunger of a lactating mother. So yesterday I decided that I should minimize my carbohydrate intake. I lasted about 12 hours. If a world exists without warm bread, sweet rolls, pizza, and ice cream, I don't want to be any part of it.
