weight loss in first trimester?

Question

I am currently 6 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I am 5'4 and 190 lbs, so obviously I am overweight. I'm upset and worried being pregnant and overweight like this. Is it safe for me to lose weight during the remainder of my first trimester? I have started walking a mile a day, but haven't changed my eating habits yet.

Answer

If you’re active and you end up losing weight, then I don’t see the problem. Just don’t diet, try to eat healthy but don’t restrict your calories to standard diet calories (going from 2000 a day to like 1300, stay at 2000 for example)
Honestly I wouldn’t even calorie count, if walking and eating healthier than you used to makes you lose some weight then I personally don’t see what the problem will be. Also, keep in mind that you might lose some anyway if you get bad morning sickness.

Answer

It not unsafe as long as you do it the right way. Eat healthy and exercise. Walking is good. Don’t start any really strenuous exercise routine though.

Answer

I’m 7 weeks and the exact weight and height as you! I felt the exact same way. But I am trying to eat healthier and walk but I won’t go anymore extreme than that

Answer

Maybe your body will lose weight on its own.  I was a little overweight for my frame,  and all i gained was 7lbs total,  and baby was full term 7lb11oz. I did not have morning sickness  or anything different i just didn't gain excess

Answer

It depends - you should definitely ask your physician before doing anything drastic. 
I lost 7kg in my first trimester and baby is absolutely fine but you have to make sure to get everything you need - I just lost it because of lots of stress and changing my diet to completely healthy. I am still taking prenatal vitamins though and that was crucial. 
But again. Ask you physician or midwife for advice, that’s the best thing to do.
