Guest guest Posted July 10, 2000 Report Share Posted July 10, 2000 Congratulations Fawn!! Good luck with the pregnancy. I think that if you eat healthy and exercise you will be just fine. I was worried with my second and I gained about 35 lbs. I lost it all after having him. ~ M. ~ BestFedBaby@...

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2000 Report Share Posted July 10, 2000 First of all, congratulations! I know the beauty of feeling pregnancy symptoms. Seems like morning sickness isn't so bad when it means a healthy pregnancy! >I actually only had about 15 to lose, but did it) and was feeling good about >where I'd be when I got pregnant again but after the mcs I just lost focus >and I guess started sliding a bit. But I honestly feel like just in the last >2 weeks things are going down hill fast!! I've started back to morning (very >vigorous) walks and eating more sensibly but wouldn't mind shedding a few >pounds. This probably isn't safe though is it? Anyone know This is almost exactly where I was with this pregnancy. I gained 60 pounds with and was a very big person! I lost all of it plus 10 pounds. Then came Thanksgiving. I gained 5 pounds then, and then next found out I was pregnant. I would say follow a modified WW plan-ask if they have a calorie list/point recommendation for pregnant women. I have done ' Deal a Meal to lose weight and also to gain sensibly with this pregnancy. I did the same obsessing about getting big again, but I'm 36 weeks pregnant now and have gained 25 pounds. Let me know if you want to discuss it more-I'm here to listen! Love, (oh-I'm new here and planned on lurking for awhile, but I just can't!!)

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2000 Report Share Posted July 10, 2000 Fawn, It seems to be pretty frowned upon to lose weight while pregnant. You would be better off exercising consistently (can help with morning sickness too) and just eating a normal balanced diet with the goal of limiting weight gain. If you have been exercising it is okay to continue aerobics through your pregnancy, but if you haven't been active then you need to keep to a pretty easy regime. Toning exercises (in combination with your walking) would help you to feel better. Soup cans make good hand weights, and lots of leg exercises can be done without getting down to the floor. The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology even has a pregnancy exercise video available. Look for it at the local library. Congratulations on your pregnancy, Amy Lynn M.
