Any tips on how to not gain so much?

Question

for me weight not height I'm considered obese and I'm already depressed about my weight his is biggest I ever been and now I'm pregnant and I'm so scared I'm gonna be depressed whole time and gain a lot of weight... I'll try not to eat much but I know that's not healthy either...

Answer

You can do it, I eat as healthy as can be and walk at least 30 minutes a day. Whenever I can I try to walk longer. And I cut off soda, added sugar and ate only low carb meals. I actually went down 30lbs from before pregnancy and at 38 weeks have not gained any lbs.

Answer

Just eat healthy. Load up on fruits and veggies. You're going to gain weight during pregnant. It's inevitable and it HAS to happen for you to carry a baby. Ask your doctor what she thinks is a healthy amount for you to gain and try and stick to that. My doctor told me I should be gaining at least a pound a week. Your body is a doing an amazing thing!

Answer

Answer

You can just eat healthily, count calories (you should eat AT LEAST 2000), try the gestational diabetes diet, which is basically a lax version of low carb diet. But I would definitely get your doctors input before you totally change your diet.

Answer

I basically just eat like I did pre pregnancy (minus all of the sweets/candy , coffee and caffeine ). I drink a lot of water and I haven't gained any weight and am currently 21 weeks . I am also plus size .

Answer

If you are already carrying extra weight there is no need for you to gain any weight in pregnancy so whoever says that you need to gain weight is wrong. Don't stress about it and just try to load up on fruits, legumes, and veggies. One thing that's helps me is to eat a huge portion of something healthy before I treat myself so that when I eat the treats I don't have as much room for them! Also if you aren't able to find motivation to cook or eat healthy after exercising opt for eating healthy over the exercise because you will benefit more from eating better than minuscule exercise. Get creative with the healthy food so it isn't boring and unappetizing. Good luck you can do it if you are determined!

Answer

Just stick to foods that are minimally processed and walk as often as you can, swimming is also great. Try not to stress, this should be a happy time! I'm overweight and the negative thoughts creep in, but I take a few deep breaths and move on, and try my best.
