Among the four pregnant women evaluated, two were considered suitable, with proper weight gaining during pregnancy, presented calorific consumption above the required, being one of them with a low consumption of simple carbohydrate and the other two with excess of simple carbohydrate. One of the two pregnant women was considered obese and the other in state of obesity, with weight gaining above the recommended level for pregnancy, and in both cases the calorific consumption was above the required level and with excess of lipids and proteins.
