Summary
This study tests whether providing 10 healthy, home-delivered meals per week plus brief weekly coaching can help pregnant women with overweight or obesity avoid gaining too much weight. Researchers will track weight changes and also measure food security and stress. The study is small (35 participants) and focuses on whether the approach is practical and acceptable, not on proving it works.
