Losing weight?

Question

I was originally 285 lbs before I became pregnant. After 1 month of pregnancy I have was 295 and worried about my weight. Now that I am 8 weeks and 4 days pregnant, I am suddenly 283 and losing. Normally I'd be ecstatic to lose weight but I'm worried. I am still having pregnancy symptoms, but should I be worried.

Answer

I weighed 295 before I found out I was pregnant and in three months I lost 30lbs.  I am 6months working on my 7th month and I currently have lost 36lbs and only gained 3 back :) doc said its cause baby is taking all nutrients and making my body work from the inside. With my first child I gained over 60lbs ! So I'm loving it!  Before this I couldn't loose weght even when I tried!  I just drink a lot of water and eat as healthy as I possibly can.  Good luck and don't worry too much.  It isn't good for you or the baby!

Answer

You burn more calories when you are pregnant so if you are eating the same or less then it's totally normal to lose weight :)

Answer

I weigh 285 too and my doc said I need to lose 30 pounds to go on any clomid or any infertility drug! He made me lose hope on being preg at this weight!!!!

Answer

I started off this pregnancy at 247. I weighed in this morning, almost 18 weeks, at 221. I'm steadily losing. This is my third pregnancy, but the first time I lost this much weight and the first time I kept losing it this late in the pregnancy.

Answer

I have lost 10 lbs in the first month of being pregnant. But I also conceived while weighing 330 lbs. so far my doctors are supportive of the weight loss as baby is still getting the needed nutrients ❤️

Answer

I'm losing weight too. I was around 225 And now I'm at 213 @ 15 wks. Dropping cokes and drinking more water + aversion to sweets except strawberries and pineapple are doing it I think. Dr said as long as I'm eating and not starving the baby it's perfectly fine for me to lose because I'm overweight, and that changing my diet is probably the cause. The baby has me craving healthier foods. Babys heartbeat was healthy at my last appointment a couple weeks ago.
