Apple cider vinegar diet while pregnant?

Question

I was wondering what you ladies thing about doing the apple cider vinegar diet and maybe going to the gym and doing light workouts. Or maybe even if people have done it share experiences or opinions im open minded I just don't want to get over 200 lbs im only 5'2 and already my BMI is 32.... not proud of that at all.. Opinions???

Answer

I agree with the other poster that I wouldn't recommend dieting while pregnant.  With that being said there are things you can do to help stay in shape!

1. Obviously watch what you're eating.  I lost around 10 pounds my first trimester just because baby did not like fried foods of any kind so my habits cleaned up real fast.  That and morning sickness is no joke.   I'm now at 26 weeks and only a few pounds over pre pregnancy weight.

2. Don't be afraid to exercise in moderation.  Talk to your doctor and learn your limitations.  Don't go trying to run a marathon if you're like me and only marathon Netflix shows.  That's no good.  But use light weights and walk on the treadmill.  Take it easy and work your way up.  Maybe join aprenatal yoga class.   As long as you can have a conversation you aren't overdoing it. Again, defer to your doctor first!

Best of luck to you and if you end up going over a little don't be discouraged.  A good chunk is baby and you can work on getting to a comfortable spot once s/he is born.  Everyone's different but we are all beautiful!

Answer

I definitely wouldn't diet to lose weight while pregnant. Just eat lots of fruits/veggies and whole grains. Ask your doctor at your first appointment what he or she recommends.
