QUESTION: I just have a quick question. I am looking for something to help me lose weight quickly that will not hurt me. I would like to become pregnant within the year. I need to lose about 30 pounds quick and diet and exercise are not enough!
ANSWER: We do not put on weight overnight and we can’t take it off that fast either.
There are so many products out there that promise fast results, but many of them are nothing more than quick fixes with no staying power for your long-term health.
It is best for a woman to be in healthy shape before getting pregnant but Dr. Abby Smith, Western Virginia OB-GYN says, “Yo-yo dieting is not healthy… and you don’t keep it off.”
