I was even going to catch the babies as they were born, but they came out with some sort of weird goo all over them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, I was around an infant recently and it occurred to me that there are lots of ways that the birth process is eerily similar to the what all goes in to losing weight\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 If you\u2019re healthy, there\u2019s no reason why you can\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 It\u2019s probably the most important thing you\u2019ll ever do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 There are drugs available to help you along, but most folks prefer a more natural approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 It was a lot more fun getting into the situation you\u2019re in than getting out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Sometimes it feels as though it\u2019s neeeeeeever going to end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 For most, there\u2019s a lot of screaming, crying and cussing along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 It helps if you\u2019ve got someone there to support you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 You\u2019ll soon have a bunch of clothes that are too big for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But of all the ways that losing weight and childbirth are similar, there\u2019s one that stands out for me the most:&nbsp; if all goes well, a brand new life emerges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jack Sh*t&nbsp;<\/strong>chronicles his weight-loss adventures (70 lbs and counting) and explores the lighter side of lightening up at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.jackfit.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jack Sh*t, Gettin\u2019 Fit<\/a>.
