Is it okay to lose weight
during pregnancy?
Pregnancy is definitely not the time to go
on a weight-loss diet: Restricting your
food intake is potentially hazardous to
you and your developing baby. But many
plus-sized women do experience weight loss
without dieting during pregnancy.
In the first trimester, it's common to
lose weight as the result of morning
sickness: The nausea can diminish your
appetite, and the vomiting can cause you
to lose calories. But don't worry, your
baby your baby will still get all the
calories he needs. Overweight women have
an extra reserve of calories in stored
fat, so as your baby grows, it's okay for
you to maintain or even lose a little
weight.

I can understand a doctor justifying it..
but condoning it and saying that she
SHOULD?
