Description: All women will be instructed to keep a diet of 25 kcal/kg/day for overweight and obese (pre-pregnancy BMI \>25) and 35 kcal/kg for women with normal weight (pre-pregnancy BMI 18.5-24.9). The intervention (low carbohydrate intake = RCD) group will be instructed to keep a diet divided into 3 full meals and four snacks of 130 g/d (or at least 20% of total daily caloric intake) of carbohydrate intake and high protein and high fat intake from plant-source foods (35-55% fat, and 20-25% protein). Protein content will be the same amount in both groups. The standard carbohydrate diet (control group) group will be instructed to keep a diet divided into 3 full meals and four snacks of 200 g/d (or at least 40% of total daily caloric intake) of carbohydrate intake and high protein and high fat intake from plant-source foods (35-45% fat, and 20-25% protein).
