Pregnancy question

Hi everybody! We just found out we are pregnant with our second, and we are elated. It's great timing for us, but not for my body. I have lost about 15 pounds so far, and I'm around 203 pounds. I'm fairly tall, so I carry it pretty well, but I'm still overweight. I'm feeling very let down, because my doctor gave me the go ahead to keep losing by doing what I'm doing (real food, running), but it's been 2 weeks and I've stagnated. Is retaining water a common symptom of early pregnancy? Anybody have any tips to try to stay at that 15 pound weight gain goal and not over? I just want to stay healthy and avoid complications. Any tips are WELCOME!
