Treence, If you maintain that is good, don't think you have to loose, I may not, and then again, I just might. I just happen to don't think it is a problem if there is a moderate weight loss. My Doctor with my last baby, was fine with 1/2 to 1 lb a week, he felt that was fat loss, and not harmful to the baby or to me.
JoAnFL, Keep doing what workout you like, since you are already doing them, no problem, it is better for you and the baby, you may have to eat more carb than you are used to but it shouldn't be much. The only thing is to be sure to adapt your workouts as your pregnancy progresses to aid balance. As far as Ketosis, I think it is more a fact that Ketones can mask problems as mentioned such as Diabetes, but I think it is more a problem with Pregnancy Induced Hypertension and you really need to have ways to pick up problems, and a small change can be very significant to the baby. I don't think Ketosis is a problem for the baby, as for reasons mentioned above. I personally don't think you should try to be in Ketosis during pregnancy, it is just more for the body to be working with, just mho, I do think it will keep a Dr. from getting on anyones back for Low carbing, if there is no sign of it, and ketosis is a big one.
I personally don't want to be hasseled about how I'm eating, I just want to feel good, and have a healthy baby, and for me this is the way to do it.
