Not too long ago, I was severely overweight. Considered obese for my height. It's been a struggle but I have lost some of it.

What was your Body Mass Index? Was it high?

Yes. It was a 35. I have it down to a 32 now.

Yes it does! I had gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with both of my kids, so it is very important that I control my weight. I have a somewhat healthier diet now, and I do yoga five times a week.

That is good you have a healthier diet. Your child is at a higher risk of having type 2 diabetes.

Oh really? I honestly did not know that. They are both pretty lean and healthy right now, but I will definitely need to work to instill healthy eating habits.
