Weight loss during pregnancy?

Question

To put into perspective I am 5’1 and I weigh around 210, I was losing weight in my early trimester and I went down to 195. My question is since I am on the heavier side, is it possible at all to lose weight during pregnancy?

Answer

With my third pregnancy I was the heaviest I ever been.. started pregnancy was 165lbs... I was on birth control for over a year and got pregnant on birth control which is why I got that heavy... anyways I gained a total of 10 pounds.. at 42 weeks when I went into labor I was 175.. BUT I feel like I was losing weight and gaining baby weight through the pregnancy. My arms are we’re getting slimmer and legs but belly obviously bigger. My son was almost 8 pounds.. plus the placenta, water, extra blood in my body don’t add up to the 10 pounds I only gained.. I guess you can try to lose weight but gain the baby weight as you go...I did not work out during pregnancy I went on a strict healthy diet and only drank water as my liquid intake. No juice, no soda, to fry food, no fast food.. etc.. lots of veggies and lots of fruits and protein from meats and beans. 
I also did juicing beets, carrots and oranges ( because of anemia, low blood platelets and vitamin C) towards the end of pregnancy...
I lost 30 pounds 15 days after giving birth.. I was pumping milk out every 3 hours and it was lots of milk.. I’m currently 133pounds and my son is 18 months old. I haven’t been this light since high school.

Answer

Totally possible being overweight or not! I lost 20 pounds on my first trimester as well. Gained it with time but Dr told me baby was healthy and that’s what mattered!
