Getting ready to TTC

I am on weight Watchers and am trying to lose as much as I can before, but I want to get my body as ready as possible in hopes my pregnancy won't be as bad as my first. I had GD with my first and I am hoping I am try to avoid it, but I know my chances of getting it are higher now. any help would be great!

exercising and weightloss if you need it is great. also take prenatals to make sure your body has the right amount of good stuff.
