Weight loss while pregnant?

Question

Is there a safe way to lose weight while pregnant? I am already over weight and only eight weeks along. I lost some weight at the first of the year and wanted to continue but is it safe and healthy? Please dont be rude when giving your opinion. Just looking for answers and maybe people who have lost weight a healthy way during pregnancy.

Answer

Just eat right and walk or swim. It'll help you not to gain too much during pregnancy

Answer

I'm 19 weeks and I'm down 11 pounds. I too am overweight. I've just been more active and have been eating healthier. My doctor says it's fine as long as my as I'm actually eating.

Answer

It is not safe to try and lose weight while pregnant, try to just eat healthy and stay active to try and avoid gaining too much but restricting calories can be harmful.

Answer

I was told it's not safe to actively try to lose weight while pregnant, I'm overweight too and I've gained 40+ lbs at almost 30 weeks now. It sucks but I eat pretty healthy and I drink 100oz of water a day and I walk 1-2 hours a day. I think what put all the weight on was mostly in the beginning when I was eating nothing but carbs basically until 16 weeks since I was so sick and now I just kinda give into my cravings. Chips, pizza, fries, fast food sometimes. But I think the extremes between my healthy ratings and my cravings is what's packing on weight. You have to remember too, weight is hereditary and if you put on more than suggested by your doctor (I know I have) do not get discouraged! Seriously, enjoy your pregnancy and just try your best to eat right and what not! Good luck sweetie

Answer

I lost weight at the beginning of my pregnancy because I wasn't eating, but it was before I found out I was pregnant. Now at 37 weeks I'm having trouble gaining weight for the baby.

Answer

Don't try & loose weight but you can do light exercise & eat healthy :)
