Losing weight in the first weeks...

dsrossing · September 2010

So, when I first found out I was pregnant ( a week ago yesterday) I weighed 188. This morning I weighed 185. I am super excited about this because 186 is my plateau weight. Can't get under it no matter how hard I try. I was very excited to see the 185

Has anybody else experienced drastic weight-loss around 5-6 weeks? My husband thinks that the baby is making my body actually work right. Hormone levels and everything. I am on a super strict diet, for the rest of my life. I only eat meat, fruits and veggies. So, I'm probably not eating enough calories for me and baby...but SOMETHING is taking away the calories!!! And I haven't changed my eating habits since being pregnant. Just doing my normal thing.

I'm hoping this means my pregnancy will be viable! Just keeping my head up!

With DS, I was losing weight too. I probably lost 5-8 pounds. But boy did I gain it alllll back.

And I am still 25 lbs overweight with this pregnancy now.

I've lost 7 lbs this week but that's only because I'm so sick I can barely eat.

The starvation diet works wonders...

I weighed 230 about a month ago.. ive since lost 30 pounds ... i havent changed my eating habits or my excercise... baby has just stolen it away (which im not complaining!) but i plan on gaining it back plus some soon.

I haven't weighed myself every week, but I've lost 8 lbs since getting pg. I saw a midwife on Friday and she said it's normal, especially with 4 weeks of m/s. I went from 191 to 183.

I went from 118lbs to 115lbs in my 7th week. I lost b/c I was really sick all the time. I'm taking Zofran now and I'm now back up to 118 and have been for the last 4 weeks. I'm still nauseous all the time, just not throwing up. So I'm not losing anymore, but I'm not gaining either. I'm sort of just stuck here. I'm not worried though, I only gained 16lbs with DS and he was healthy.

I started at 148 when pregnant with my daughter and when I went in for t=my first appt I was 156.. So I still have not lost all the baby weight from her... I lost two pounds this week. My dr. does not want me to loose weight. She said I could go the entire 1st trimester not gaining any weight but loosing weight is not good.... I was happy..

I lost 4 lbs in one weekend. I talked to my Dr. about it and she said as long as the baby continues to grow at a safe rate and you aren't depriving the baby of needed nutrients, that it is perfectly fine to lose weight. It's actually recommended to eat right and exercise during pregnancy.

With my first pregnancy, I lost 12 pounds in the first trimester. I did not start gaining anything until almost the 3rd trimester, but I had some extra pounds to begin with. I just found out that I was pregnant, so who knows what this one will be like!

I'm with you. And the bloat I have makes me look like I've gained ten pounds. I just push it out and rub it and call it my little friend.

I lost a few lbs in 1st tri, and I wasn't even sick or anything, it's just because my body was working harder to make a baby. Finally by 18 weeks I got back to my pre pregnancy weight, and ended up gaining 30 lbs by the end.
