I need some ADVICE.........help me please!!

I am already considered overweight from my last pregnancy. I am in need of a good diet that tastes good and is made for overweight pregnant women. I was up all night looking online and so far I can only find regular pregnancy diets. I am not trying to gain another 30 pounds believe me that wouldnt be good for either me or the baby. So if anyone know where I can find one PLEASE let me know. I am about 3 weeks pregnant with my third and I gained 58 lbs with my first and lost all of it and gained 50lbs with my second. And I didn't lose much of it...... It varies from day to day about 7 pounds so Iam not really trying to gain no more than a healthy 15 maybe 20pounds...........

Generally women tend to lose weight during the first trimester so that is a plus. Over weight women tend to store more nutrients and fat so the weight loss shouldn't have an effect on the baby. Walk as much as possible. Walking is a great way to lose weight just put on your ipod and walk :)  You should also try prenatal yoga. It is a great way to tone and great strong it also relaxes and the stretching is great. Try and eat small meals every 4 hours. I hope this helps a little. I am very happy for you and hope all goes well for you during your pregnancy. I tested twice over the holiday weekend and got BFN's if AF doesn't show by Friday the 29th I will be testing again. Wish us luck. God Bless

Congratulatons on your BFP!! When did you test? I am a personal trainer so I will look into some healthy diets that will help you lose weight w/o hurting the baby. I'll send you a personal message when I come up with something.
