TIL Pregnant women only need an additional 300 calories a day to properly develop a fetus. So why do women use pregnancy as an excuse to get fat?

300 calories is about a serving of yogurt and half a bagel extra on your day. So why the hell do a lot of women get so fat while pregnant?

That might sound insensitive, but you're endangering your life and the life of your baby by pigging out on the disgustingly unhealthy cravings your mind has. And then you get pissed when you see a beautiful pregnant woman who eats right and works out.

Yes, there are exceptions on both sides of the fence that allow some girls to eat whatever they want while preggo and not get huge and some just get really big and struggle with the weight no matter what. But those are called expceptions for a reason.
