I work for a well known weight loss organisation, and we are not allowed to keep clients while they are pg. Their membership is suspended for 12 months. this is for legal reasons. It would be irresponsible to encourage women to loose weight whilst pg, particularly as we are not doc, or even fully trained and accredited nutritionists.
Now having said that, whilst I am pg I still continue to follow the eating progam with slight increases in portions as I get closer to my due date (for my weight and height about an extra 300kj on top of my maintaince amount per trimester). (I also discuss this with my clients 'off the record', and recommend they take the program material to their doctor to discuss it with them.)
so my advice to you is to discuss your program with your doc, or nutritionist and on their advice, continue your healthy eating patterns.
