Just Joined and Looking for support

Hi! I'm 24, just had a baby in July and am trying to avoid getting Diabetes! Doctor said I have a 70% chance of getting Diabetes in the next 4-6 years if I don't get my weight down. I'm determined to get thin, but need all the support I can get! I'm hoping this website and the new scale I just bought will keep me motivated... plus I want to look thin next summer for my best friend's wedding!
