lost weight?

Question

hey all, 
I am 11 weeks and so far i have LOST 15 pounds! It really doesn’t make any sense to me. 
I’m overweight to start with. I have really severe nausea but i have not had any vomiting. And i hate to admit it but, i haven’t been eating very healthy foods. So why did i loose 15 pounds??

Answer

Because your body is burning more calories growing a human and system to support it. If your doc isn’t concerned it shouldn’t be an issue, especially if overweight. (I’m in the same boat and it’s all good - currently wishing it was always this simple to drop a few lbs lol)

Answer

I lost 4 lbs in 6 days bc I can’t stomach anything but potatoes. Nausea is exhausting and growing a baby takes a lot of energy!

Answer

I’m in the same boat! And right now they don’t seem to concerned about it as long as I’m staying hydrated. 
After the second trimester they said you should start to gain it back slowly once you start to get better and actually feel human lol 
I would say if you’re doctor isn’t concerned right now then you’re okay, but defiantly keep them informed of everything

Answer

Growing a human uses lots of calories! I’ve been eating normal for me (probably a bit more because food keeps the nausea away) but none of it’s been particularly healthy and I haven’t been working out at all because I’m spotting and exhausted (used to go 5 days per week), and I’ve lost weight too. So weird to see a lower number on the scale but my pants are tighter around my waist.
