As obesity rates continue to rise, it is critical to outline contributing factors to better treat and prevent the occurrence of this disease. Previous research has found a link between excessive weight retention post-partum to elevated risk of obesity fifteen years later, yet have been unable to determine a cause for excessive weight retention. As such, the objective of this study is to determine if a relationship does in fact exist between pregnancy weight gain and post-partum weight retention. We found that for each kilogram of increase weight gain during pregnancy increased the likelihood of retaining 3.86-9.84 kg by 2% and 9.84-85.96 kg by 3%, reduced the risk of losing weight in excess of that gained during her pregnancy by 2%. Furthermore, analysis of the "part vs. whole" bias theory is also presented while addressing factors contributing to the weight retention variable.
