weight loss

I was trying to lose weight and so far I've lost 20 lbs but I just found out I was pregnant can I still lose weight while pregnant?

You aren't supposed to deliberately lose weight when pregnant. If you're eating healthier and it just happens then that's fine. The baby needs nutrients.

Agree with others.  You can watch what you eat and not pig out and keep it healthy but when pregnant is not the time to restrict calories significantly or actively try to lose weight.  You can eat regular portions of healthy food which could be a switch for you if in the past you were eating larger than average portion sizes.  good luck and congratulations.
