Where possible I'd like to continue losing weight (18lbs down so far) throughout the pregnancy but just not sure if this is safe?

Ketosis is fine according to every REAL thing I've read (i.e., not scare tactics or articles with no substantiating evidence). I was likely in ketosis through most of my first trimester and into my second. I also lost about 12 pounds in my first trimester.
I was going to direct you to the "All Things Babies" thread, but I see you found it  |
