Pregnancy weight gain - slimming world whilst pregnant

Dear all,

Please no judgements here, I'm just trying to do what's right and healthy for me and baby!
I'm 24 weeks and sehow have gained 3 1/2 stone!!! Granted I haven't watched what I eat per se but I haven't been gorging on rubbish every day! Nonetheless I'm concerned about this weight gain and gestational diabetes.
My question is has anyone done slimming world whilst pregnant and lost any weight? I know it's not usually advisable to lose weight whilst pregnant but this can't be healthy! My sister looked absolutely shocked when I yold her how much I'd put on and she's a midwife!

I need some positive stories. I'd love to get to the baby being born having not put any more weight on! (and if I could be about half a stone lighter I'd be even happier!!)
Please let me know if you have done slimming world and lost weight in 2nd/ 3rd trimester xxx

Thought that thread might be useful to you. You could ask some of the PPs there.

Also gestational diabetes is hormone driven and it's all to do with your placenta. So weight gain in pregnancy doesn't mean you will get GD x
