Healthy Ways to Approach Weight Gain
Weight gain is hard for some women to stomach, even when they have the best reason in the world to do so–like they’re pregnant and absolutely should pack on the pounds.
If you’re one of those women who is finding it difficult to embrace the rounder, more cuddly you, check out the article I wrote on Gather.com.
It even includes this photo of me, taken when I was 8 months pregnant, on one of the rare days that I actually made an effort to look good. (It was July 4 and we were going to a party, after all!)
Watch the Real Deal Guide Interview
I just got back from introducing my book to the nation through 21 satellite media broadcasts to morning news shows all over the country. I enjoyed it so much that I didn’t even mind that interviews started at 4:30am and went straight through to 9am! (That’s what having a -1/2 year-old who wakes you up four times a night because she’s transitioning to a “big girl bed” will do for you–Sleep? What’s that?)
Check out the fun interview on KMPH Fox 26 out of Fresno, California.
