Hi everyone! My name is Krista, and this is my first day being here. My goal is to lose 65 lbs. and be sexier at 30 years old than I ever was at 20! My son is now 8 years old, and I still had not lost any of the baby weight from him when I got pregnant with my daughter earlier this year. At 10 weeks into the pregnancy, I found out that I am borderline type 2 diabetic, and also had gestational diabetes. I wound up having to take insulin 4 times a day on top of eating a very carb-restrictive diet. After having my daughter, I was 20-pounds lighter than before I got pregnant from the healthier eating I was doing while pregnant. Now that I have not had to watch my carbs as much the past 6 weeks since she was born, I have already put back on 10 of the pounds I lost ... bummer!!! So... that is what brought me here.

    Congratulations on your new baby.
    Sexy comes from within.....not from the number on the scale!

    Welcome! (Former) T2 here, defiantly watch the weight it makes that whole pancreas work more efficient not to have to deal with the belly fat. I couldnt do the needles, luckilly exercising my butt off was a viable option!

    Welcome again, and if your looking for friends feel free to add me :)
