Any overweight ladies count calories while pregnant?

Question

Obviously not limiting myself to like 1600 but mainly keeping track of it and making sure you aren’t going crazy? I was thinking between 2,000-2,500 for a wide range since I also workout. I won’t let myself go super hungry bc I’m pregnant but I just wanted to get anyone else’s opinion and advice!! I start seeing a nutritionist next week so hopefully that helps. I am about 60 pounds overweight.

Answer

I was trying to eat about 1800 a day. I am not sure if that’s the accurate amount to eat or not, have to ask my doctor.

Answer

Yep, I’m working with a dietitian that works at the hospital, I’m on no more then 2100 calories but I don’t count at all.
I use an app and it does it for me called ‘easy diet diary’.  I actually follow a clean eating type of diet, you can find heaps of recipes through Google or Pinterest. I cut out all sugar and dairy and it’s helping me not pack on more pounds (my biggest fear becoming pregnant 🤰🏼)

Answer

I'm not counting calories but I am following a plan called trim healthy mama to help with weigh gain

Answer

I’ve just started calorie counting as gained 9lbs already and only 18+3 weeks. I’m on 1600 calories a day, if I weren’t pregnant and on a diet I would normally be on 1300 a day. I’ve been eating so much lately so need to get my weight under control as was overweight before I fell pregnant.

Answer

I’m not but I also have issues eating I’m never hungry 🙄
