Hello dear
At the outset congratulations for the new journey. I must say that it's all about nutrition right now for you and the little one. The focus must be health rather than calories. However, it does not means that you just stuff yourself up with any and everything. I'll go for a healthy fulfilling and balanced diet for now along with good amount of exercise, which you are actually following. As far as a diet plan per se is concerned, it has to be made keeping in view all the medical parameters dear, which can be done only with a detailed consultation. Following a healthy diet and exercise will ensure no excess weight gain is there, however some amount of weight does increase as it is natural.
Next Steps
Do consult a clinical/ therapeutic nutritionist for a well made and personalized diet plan. also do check that you do get services of regular follow ups and max support (in terms of frequent queries) from your dietitian.
Health Tips
Pls feel free to connect with me for a detailed and complimentary on call consultation.

Hi
I cannot comment anything without out knowing your time schedule,diet schedule and medical history.
But do remember don't limit the calorie intake yourself. Meet an expert as taking less calorie can also affect your health and baby health.
And always take quality food never compromise quality of nutrients in lowering of calories.
I would recommend you to have a one-to-one counselling session with me so that I can assess your pregnancy better and Lifestyle better so that I can provide you personalized plan according to you.
If you wanna discuss further you can opt for personal chat option
Meet a Dietician/Nutritionist for personalized diet plan
