Hello,
I gained almost 50 pounds with my LO (he's 6 weeks old). I had gestational diabetes with this pregnancy which was dissappointing. I want to relearn how to be healthy and avoid getting diabetes for the rest of my life. If I make a change now, the chances of me getting diabetes is slim. I am looking to be at a healthy weight, and I know it will take time. Hopefully using this site for support will encourage me to stick with it!

Rachelle
