Your pregnancy weight gain reminds me, lovingly, of what my mom always "bragged" about. With me and my brother, she only gained about 20 pounds (and this was Waaay Back in the Day) by eating fruits, veggies, protein. No sweets and very little fat.. Not that they even knew much about that stuff in the Dark Ages, but she always made me think she was ahead of her time on keeping fit and healthy. I guess it also helped that she was "no bigger than a minute" anyway.

I've never looked at any labels, but my guess is that a lot of the "diet" stuff on the market contains caffeine, but in any case, my bet is that with twins and pets, you'll be melting off that "baby fat" in no time. Trust me, I had a weight problem my whole life..diet pills and all..but it always came back once I stopped them. I, (unfortunately thru stress) I now weigh what I should have weighed as a young adult. I no longer believe in diet. I use moderation. I eat what I want, but stop when I feel a bit full, drink tons of water and excercise. Ain't always fun, but it works for me.
