Why lifestyle matters after pregnancyĀ Ā
"What happens during pregnancy can tell us something about the future. After gestational diabetes, around 50% of women develop type 2 diabetes in the years that follow. Hypertensive complications, such as preeclampsia, also increase the later risk of cardiovascular disease. An early lifestyle intervention is therefore not an extra, but an essential form of preventive care."
Dr. Koen Deurloo, gynecologist at Diakonessenhuis

Hear from our users
The choice for SLIMMER Online was quite easy for me, because the physical GLI only took place during the day and that did not fit into my work schedule. The digital program gave me the flexibility to work on my goals without disrupting my work.
I see participants taking steps every week and hear the gratitude in their stories. That gives them a lot of energy and motivation to offer them that little bit of support every time.
The digital program really enhances accessibility, allowing my participants to progress flexibly while enabling me to provide meaningful support from anywhere.
