Is your ob/gyn on board with you losing weight during pregnancy? It’s really not recommended. Discuss your diet with your doctor as well.11

Baby first, weight loss second. 💟9 -
any weight loss plan needs to be discussed with your ob/gyn when you are pregnant.5

Echoing the others. SOME women have a weight gain goal of 0lbs (losing equal amounts body weight to what you gain from baby) and some have actual weight loss goals.....but usually they are only women with high BMI and other complicating factors that weight loss is less dangerous than weight gain for mom and baby. You need to make sure your OB is aware of your concerns so you can have a realistic goal that keeps you both safe. Restrictive eating can be harmful to a fetus....but it can be bad for mom too because the fetus is going to pull nutrients from YOU and your bones and your system.8

Not losing any, attempting to gain, but eating SUPER healthy and tracking to be able to discuss with the nutrition counselor and hit protein.2
