A member asked:

If i'm dieting and exercising trying to lose weight and then i get pregnant, do i have to change my habits?

Dr. Gregg Nishi answered

Specializes in Bariatrics

Pregnant diet: It is perfectly fine to continue exercising while pregnant (as long as it isn't too extreme). However, i wouldn't recommend dieting while pregnant. Just eat healthy. Dieting in general is not ideal for anyone. Just eat healthy, well balanced meals and make sure the portion size is appropriate.
