Most of you who know me on here know that this topic is what drives my batty. But for those who still feel the need to ask how to lose weight during pregnancy...here is a study by the US Institute of Medicine...
http://www.webmd.com/baby/news/20090528/pregnancy-weight-gain-new-guidelines

To summarize, no matter how much exercise you do, you will gain weight. Yes, you do need to remain active, but do not starve yourself in order to stay thin. Think of your child growing inside of you and its needs. And do not worry about the # of pounds you are supposed to gain, as studies show you will gain more even with exercise. After you drop your package, then you can worry about how you look. I myself think pregnant women are attractive...and the proof is my wife. We started dating when she was 8 months pregnant(true story)

Stepping down off soapbox now. Have a happy Friday.

    Not biologically...It is a mushy love at first sight story, and I was there when he was born, cut the umbilical cord, and he has my last name as I signed the birth certificate as his father. That was 10 years ago this past July and we now have a Lil Diva together.
