Ways to Manage Weight during Pregnancy

• Gaining excess weight during pregnancy raises
  your risk for pregnancy complications like
  cesarean section (C-section) and premature birth.
  Maintaining a healthy weight further reduces the
  chances of developing gestational diabetes and
  preeclampsia. What you eat not only affects your
  weight but also the health of your pregnancy and
  your unborn baby.

• 1.Plan pregnancy when you are of healthy weight
  If you are contemplating pregnancy or trying to
  conceive, opt for a preconception appointment
  where the healthcare provider helps determine
  your current BMI (body mass index) and draws up a
  weight loss plan if necessary.
• 2. Exercise regularly Regular exercise during
  pregnancy is important. Regardless of pregnancy,
  an adult female should have a minimum of 150
  minutes of moderate exercise per week. Pregnant
  women can continue with the same level of
  activity as before the pregnancy.

• 3. Eat home-cooked food Consume food that is
  made at home and using low-fat cooking methods.
  Baking, broiling, grilling, and boiling are some
  excellent lower-fat methods of cooking. Foods
  thus cooked are healthier and enable you to
  maintain an ideal weight.
• 4. Avoid certain types of foods Foods rich in
  simple carbohydrates (white bread, rice or pasta)
  and sugar (sweets, soft drinks, or other
  artificial sweeteners) should be avoided. Foods
  with complex carbohydrates and natural sweeteners
  are recommended instead.

• 5. Keep track Keeping track of what you eat is
  a great of knowing the number of calories you
  consume. Note everything down in a journal and
  learn to look at the nutritional break-up of each
  food item you eat. This improves the quality of
  your diet and helps lose weight.
• 6. Cut empty calories Weight gain during
  pregnancy is natural. Which is why the aim is to
  not stop weight gain but to keep it at a healthy
  rate instead? Cutting down on empty calories,
  eating nutritious food and avoiding junk food
  boosts your health, and that of your unborn
  babies.
