morning all,

just wondered if it is possible to limit the amount of weight gained during pregnancy, I am about 3 stone overweight at the moment, i had just joined Slimming world and paid for a 12 week countdown so I still have 8 weeks paid for when the two blue lines appeared. I dont want to necessarily lose any weight, not sure if thats even possible but dont want to pile it on either. So if its no too personal a question how much have you put on or lost and is anyone else in a simialr position with regards a slimming club.:oooo:
 
You can still do Slimming World with the permission of your doctor if you are already over weight. SW is ideal really because it's not a 'diet' as such and you can eat unlimited amounts of lovely healthy fruit and veg.
 
Merv's mum is right. I'd speak to my doctor if I was you and discuss maybe staying on sw. I'm a good weight at min but found it really hard at the beginning to resist the cravings of blueberry muffins and coke so I treated myself every other day to one or the other. I'm now back on track with the healthy eating. Maybe you could borrow a book on healthy eating in pregnancy? I borrowed one from library which was really helpful in explaining what I need now I'm pregnant, what foods contain what I need, ideas for including them in my diet and recipe ideas. Good luck hon.
 
I lost a lot of weight last year in preparation for my wedding at Christmas and since I found out I was pregnant on NYE I have gained a LOT of weight. I have eaten whenever I have felt sick and TBH it has stopped me from having any major sickness and I am at least thankful for that. I had just paid my monthly pass for Weight Watchers when I found up but I rang up in the new year and explained what had happened and they cancelled my membership AND refunded me the payment I had just made. Good luck xx
 
im very overweigh although i have lost 7 st in past year my plan is not to loose weight but to only gain upto a stone thru the pregnancy since having my gastric band emptied iv managed to not gain and am staying the same so im happy tbh honest as long as im eating healthy im not focuasing to much on it tho i just want to enjoy being pregnant il deal with the weight after
 
thanks for the replies, i havent had any cravings or anything like that but do feel sick if i dont eat every couple of hours. At least with SW there are loads of free foods that i can have. will just have to see how |I do in the next few weeks and take it from there.
