How much weight should i lose if obese so i don't have a high risk pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal BMI: Check online to find out your body mass index. You can then see how much weight you would need to lose to get a normal bmi. If you are very obese consider bariatric surgery. I have seen patients lose a great deal of weight and have successful pregnancies.
