Can you conceive WHILE losing weight?

Question

Have any of you experienced getting pregnant while in the middle of a lifestyle change/weight loss??? What was your experience, how much did you weigh/lose, etc...

Answer

Yes! I was on the keto diet for a month before I got pregnant. It's a high fat, low carb diet and I loved it. My starting weight was 204lbs and I was 183lbs when I got pregnant about 4-5 weeks later. This diet is known to help women get pregnant so if you're TTC I definitely recommend it!

Answer

Lost 105 lbs and BAM. PREGNANT!

Answer

Yes, I lost 15 pounds and then got pregnant

Answer

I just started ttc and am in the process of losing weight. I've lost almost 50 lbs so far and I'd like to lose another 20 before getting pregnant, but I'd be happy if it happened right away too! As soon as I find out that I am pregnant, I plan on loosening my diet, but still continuing on eating really healthy and excercising daily. As long as you're not starving yourself, there shouldn't be a problem!

Answer

I was 99kgs when I got home from a 2 week holiday with my husband where all we did was eat and drink. I got home and was terrified of hitting triple figures so completely changed my eating habits and was working out 4-6 tines a week. I got down to 86kg and found out we were expecting 😀 In the 13+ months since having my son I haven’t been exercising or focussing on good food so got back up to 99kg. I recently completely changed our eating habits and started walking (with my son in the pram) and so far I have lost 3kgs and already pregnant 😀 Planning to keep doing at least 10,000 steps a day and eating whole foods 80% of the time to try and minimise my weight gain during pregnancy.

Answer

Losing weight doesn't help everyone. I've been actively trying to conceive with PCOS for baby number 1 for 15 months. I recently lost 25 lbs and still nothing. I went from 193 to 168.

Answer

of course I weighed 226 lost 10 pounds then got pregnant.

Answer

yes. i lost a lot of weight with a change in diet/lifestyle. then found out i was pregnant, still losing weight throughout pregnancy but honestly feel better pregnant than i did when i wasnt (even before weight issues, i had deficiencies). i think the weight loss also helped me to concieve because i was really becoming at risk of a lot of health issues and such. my husband really helped me to take control of my own health. cant wait to meet our first baby 😊

Answer

yes, and you can lose weight while pregnant

Answer

Thank you ladies for your feedback! I'm hopeful that it will happen sooner than later but in the meantime, my main focus will be on getting myself healthy and the pregnancy will follow like it did for you ladies!!
