How can my friend have a baby and not gain any weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can't: You are supposed to, and need to, gain some weight while you are pregnant. Eating a heathy diet and light to moderate exercise can prevent you from gaining excess weight beyond what is needed and heathy.
