I am currently 33 weeks pregnant, so I'm not dieting. When I got pregnant I weighed 145, and now I weigh 155. I did the CAD about a year ago, and lost 20 pounds (most of which was gained when I was pregnant with my son)!! I'm looking forward to going back on the diet as soon as I have the little darling, but I was wondering if it was safe to do so if I plan on nursing. Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated!! (Esp. from "flitter" if she is still around??)
Thanks!

Take care...and have a happy, healthy pregnancy :baby:

Because you would not be in ketosis which is is no no for pregnancy or nursing. I don't see why not. Just be sure you are intaking enough calories, make sure you are balencing your RM. And I would be sure you don't skip meals
and by the way wow on not gaining a large amount while pregnant When i got pregnet I weighed 160 and gained 60 pounds eating everything in sight!!!!
