Hi...well, what I can tell you is that you can loose weight before you get pregnant but it is impossible to loose it while pregnant..don't diet when you're pregnant and even if you do excercise, (which is something very advisable during pregnancy) you won't loose weight then because of all the changes and water retention. Just take it easy...walking helps alot.

: First, just want to say that my english is not 100% good.

: I would like to get pregnant in a few months but I have a few pounds to lose (10-12 pounds). If I became pregnant before I lose those pounds, can I try to lose it even if I'm pregnant. Not by dieting but only by doing exercices? But by losing weight I mean the FAT. It doesnt matter for me if it's make a difference or not on my scale. I just want to lose a little bit of fat and I wonder if it's a good idea when pregnant or not??? If it's better to wait after the pregnancy??
: Thank you very much and sorry for my english.....
