NOT safe during preg: Your doctor said lose weight before pregnancy- now that you're pregnant you can't do that. No weight loss program is safe now because we have lots of environmental toxins stored in our fat tissues. When we lose weight these toxins enter our blood stream. In early pregnancy exposures to these toxins is very dangerous to your baby. Eat a healthy diet during pregnancy & focus on weight loss after.
