    If you are over a certain weight, you can lose safely. I am only 6 weeks, so I haven't gained anything yet. I am hoping to come out of my first trimester with no weight gain, and then gain 1/2 pound/week during 2nd tri and a pound a week during 3rd tri. I am about 25 pounds overweight, so it's ok if I don't gain a huge amount.

    I am 21 weeks and have gained 10 pounds. I haven't been exercising though - I really need to just get up and do it! I just haven't wanted to in the evenings after work.

    I'm 27 weeks and I have gained about 25 lbs. I just started tracking what I eat and exercising a month ago. Hopefully I won't gain any more unnecessary weight :/

    I am 13 weeks and have already gained 9 lbs :( I don't know how it was possible to gain so much when I have hardly ate and throw everything up :( BUT I have only been able to stomache carbs and wasn't logging in. SO now I am working out again and eating way better. Hopefully I won't gain anything this trimester, or least very little!

    I am in the same boat. I am 18 weeks and have gained 12 lbs, but put on about 10 before I got pregnant. I just got back to logging and finally have the energy to exercise again, so I hope I don't gain anymore unnecessary weight!! Especially since it's going to be a long hot summer for me :embarassed:

    I am 33 weeks pregnant and have put on 1.5 stone. I have been healthy eating but no excercise due to feeling knackered/bad back all the time.
    I have not looged any food diary during my pregnancy. Does anyone know what you should change your perameters to, eg, gain 2 pound etc, as i have also not altered that on my profile as well.

    No matter what I do (count calories, exercises, etc...) I gain on average a pound a week. :( I'm at about 36 pounds at 35 weeks. At least I haven't gained anything in the past 2 weeks. I'm already 6 pounds over what I wanted to gain with this pregnancy though, which completely bums me out. Everyone keeps telling me it's all in my belly and that I still look tiny. I don't see it. :(
