I'm actually going to try to lose some weight too. I'm not going to actually diet or put a limit on calories but I am going to choose healthier food like fruit, veggies and cut out soda.

I need to lose at least 3 stone. 4 even better. I feel awful. I am 9 weeks and feel like a fat messy blob. I wish I didn't want to eat all the time and when I don't eat I feel weird!

Eating healthy meals and light exercises during pregnancy is definitely recommend. And if you do happen to be overweight and lose weight during pregnancy thats ok. I lost 14 kg with my last pregnancy. Pitty i gained it all back lol

Hey ladies ,
Just found out yesterday that I'm pregnant 4weeks. I have gained about 5 pounds the month before. I would love to get rid of them as well. It's hard because I always feel like I wanna eat.

By the way, what's a stone?

 

[Mummy May]

There are 14lb in a stone

Once my appetite starts going back to normal (I dont wanna eat anything at the moment and when I do its crap) then I will be eating healthily and going to the gym. I need to lose 1.5 stone to have a healthy BMI.

Thanks mummy may.

Is it possible to lose that much weight during pregnancy?

I really wanna try to gain nothing more than the baby weight and water weight. I wanna go back to having my current body after birth. Don't know how much control we have over that but I wanna start watching out early.

Iv got a lot to lose so should be able to lose some xx

I'm going to be doing the green smoothie diet modified. I did it before pregnancy and lost all my baby weight but recently gained 8 lbs back. I am starting it again tomorrow and will continue in the hopes of losing some weight first trimester and not gaining any after.

I do slimming world, it's not too restrictive & works, though I'm struggling to stay on track at the mo with constant nausea! x

Just be glad you weren't like me with my first pregnancy 23yrs ago. I couldn't be within 5 miles of food or I would throw-up. Lost 35lbs and felt miserable. I would drink more water, I like smart H20 or Fuji. Have all your food ready for the day b4, in sandwich baggies, so you can grab and go. Fruits, veggies, and nuts of some sort. I think just like dieting prior to your surprise, it's all about eating healthy choices. That's the bottom line.

My first pregnancy I went from 9 stone - 11.5. I did mange to loose it all within 6-7 months by keeping to a balanced diet, running and home workouts. We are due to get married 4 months after this little one is due, my wedding dress is ordered in a size 8 and will be ready to collect the end of this month so that's my motivation to be healthy and keep excercising throughout this pregnancy! I think lots of fruit & veg for snacking is key rather than sugary unhealthy snacks. And gentle excercising is encouraged as long as there is no medical reason why you shouldn't.

I was starting to diet and excerises about 30 days before I found out I was pregnnat. I am hoping to not gain any weight at all in the first tri but would ideally like to lose maybe 5 pounds, too.
I use My Fitness Pal and changed my goal to lose 1/2 pound a week. That way I still get like 1800 cals and it should help me not gain any weight.

I joined Slimming World when I found out I was pregnant with DS2. By due date I was the same weight so I didn't gain anything. Within 10 days of giving birth I was 2 stone 1lb under pre pregnancy weight and hit target by his 1st birthday with a 5 stone loss.
I've been there ever since so I will be expected to gain this time which will be hard psychologically but worth it x
