  • Hello. I'm MsDiana from Northern VA.

    I just found this site while I was googling lemon hot water. SO I thought I could learn a lot from this site. I am currently an unemployed single mom with pretty much no help. I recently had a baby. He just turned 8 months. I had gained weight before I got pregnant, then gained a lot of weight during the pregnancy, so now I have a lot of weight to lose. I have been talking about losing the weight but was too lazy, depressed and unmotivated. So I FINALLY got fed up with the way I look and feel. I have about 45lbs to lose. I had already started eating better, just joined the gym yesterday, and now am going to have more of a full blown diet. Which is hard for me because I never had to diet before and I love good food and beer .

    So anyways, here I am.
    I got some stuff called Recreate fromt the vitamin store. I am going to start having a hot cup of lemon water every morning, plus going to the gym hopefully 4 days a week.

  • Hi, MsDiana. What a cutie-pie your son is, and you're not too shabby yourself.. I love his name, too. My son's middle name is Jake.

    Anyway, we are at pretty similar places right now... my initial goal is 35 pounds, but I may adjust that a little once it's met.

    You're in a great place for motivation and support. And just think- you have a wonderful exercise opportunity at your disposal every day... running after your little one is great exercise!
