I lost weight while pregnant. But, it was under doctor supervision and I was very overweight. Your irst concern has to be the baby and you need edequate nutrition for its health and yours. I suggest seeing a dietician or doctor and have them set your daily calories and advise what to eat. For optimum health. Be gently active, I walked a lot, to become fitter and stronger.
Mainly, enjoy your pregnancy and don't use it as an excuse to go nuts. Healthy food is key0 -
Good luck! I've never been pregnant before but have read about lots of studies where pregnant women can lose weight safely; I'm sure you can too
Definitely get your doctor to let you work with a nutritionist though to ensure you get enough nutrients for you and the baby! 0 -
Thanks for the advise! I am going to start walking soon. The first few weeks really knocked me on my butt for tiredness. I'm getting better. Yesterday was the first day I was on my feet all morning and didnt feel like I was going to fall over. Been trying to stay away from burgers and such, gotta do better! Going to start logging in everyday now!0
