Aversion to food, morning sickness, throwing up all the time can be the reasons for losing weight in first trimester. But don't worry, it is natural, unless you lose it like crazy, and if you do go see your doc.
Although you do expect your weight to go up once you discover that you're expecting, but losing weight in early pregnancy is quite normal, especially if you have a bad case of morning sickness and/or nausea. Having said that, it is quite a challenge to eat blandest of the foods and keep it down. But as long as weight loss is in the range of 10% of your body weight, don't worry, it won't affect your baby's development.
And any which ways, you are not supposed to put on a lot, in an ideal situation, you should gain 1-2 kg in the entire trimester. And if you are losing out on your weight, trust me, you'll quickly gain it too, once this nausea and morning sickness and aversion to food wears of.
So, Mommys to be, don't worry about the weight loss at all, its just normal.
