anyone having issues with weight?

As of today, I'm 18w on the dot. My doctor told me that, because I'm over weight, I should be gaining anywhere from 10-15lbs. Since my first appointment, all my body's been doing is losing weight. I've lost a total of 11 lbs.
They don't tell me anything about it. (maybe cause they don't make note of it?) But should I be concerned?  Anyone else having this issue?

It's nothing to worry about, especially if you're already overweight.

Im 23 weeks and I was losing weight all the way up until about 21 weeks then I gained 4 pounds. Nothing to be concerned about, totally normal. You'll most likely start gaining weight around the end of your pregnancy.

A lot of women lose weight during pregnancy.  Definitely normal. You'll start gaining soon.  The drs didn't say anything because they're not concerned.
