Dieting while pregnant is ALWAYS questionable, and shouldn't be done w/o consulting a doctor. Dieting with the help of meal replacements is an even worse idea. Meal replacements are designed to satisfy the nutritional demands of ONE adult individual, but when you're pregnant the mother ALSO needs to get enough nutrition to fulfil the needs of the growing baby as well. Overweight and obesity are risk factors in a pregnancy too, but trying to address that when you're already pregnant is a tad too late. If you insist I'd suggest you contact Weightwatchers, who have developed balanced and controlled diets for expecting mothers.
