Q. I keep hearing about 'medical conditions' that prevent people from losing weight but I never hear what specifically they are. Seems pretty simple to me that if calories in < calories out, then you lose weight. I understand that people confined to a wheelchair or otherwise immobilized might have a harder time losing weight than someone who can exercise, but you can still lose weight (albeit more slowly) by dieting alone.
A. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and Thyroid problems. These two conditions will hinder anyone from losing weight because of hormonal imbalance.
What are the risks of losing weight while pregnant?
Q. I'm overweight and losing weight. I'm not doing it on purpose. Actually I'm trying to eat more every day, but I keep losing a quarter pound a day. I'm not vomiting at all. I don't know why this is happening and I can't seem to stop it. What are the risks to the baby if I continue to lose weight?
I'm eating about 3x what I normally would eat before I got pregnant. More than double my husband.
Just wanted to let everyone know that my first trimester is almost over and I have stopped losing weight.
Even though I lost a few pounds, my belly is still growing outward and very round. In fact, it looks like I've gained weight.
Thanks so much for all of your advice and concern. I did check with a doctor and also went for a second opinion. Everything is fine since I'm a super healthy eater. They assume the weight loss is from all the sleep that I have been doing.
Thanks again everyone.

A. As long as you are not doing it on purpose, you are fine. Just make sure you are eating what you are supposed to be eating. I have lost and gained weight throughout my entire pregnancy. I once lost 9 lbs in just a few days. My doctor said as long as I'm drinking enough water and I'm eating what I'm supposed to be eating, the baby will be fine. Fetuses take what they need, even if it's at the expense of the mother. So, basically, your baby is taking from you and that's why you are losing the weight. Just bring it up at your next doctor's appointment. But I wouldn't worry about it.
What activities work best for losing weight?

Does losing weight through hypnosis even work?
Q. I really wanted to start losing weight with hypnosis. Does it even work? What are the best hyponis tapes to lose weight for teenagers? The only one I've heard of is Think and Lose, does that work? Is there a better hypnosis tape than this?
A. Yes, hypnosis does work for weight loss. Going to a hypnotist or hypnotherapist would be beneficial rather than a recorded tape as the session would be more personal and aimed for your needs. All hypnosis is self hypnosis (the hypnotist is a coach) so learning self hypnosis techniques and wanting to lose weight you will be successful. Best of luck.
