You can still work out and eat healthy. I worked out until my 3rd trimester and then I was just walking because it became too uncomfortable (was walking about 2 hours a day). Then food wise, I would eat mainly homecooked meals and I did intermittent fasting all the way (not eating breakfast) and was fine, but I wouldn't start now if you haven't done it before.

Calories intake, calculate your basal metabolic rate and in the first trimester you don't need to eat more than that, 2nd trimester about 300 calories extra and 3rd about 500 calories extra. Tbh I lost the extra weight super fast after pregnancy because I ate healthy and kept active so I stronhly recommend it
