Hello All!

New to this site, was referred by my sister in law. Just had a baby three months ago (adorable little boy!) and looking to lose post-baby weight. But more important I lost my father just recently to a massive heart attack... so getting HEALTHY is number one for myself and family. I joined the gym as well so we will see how this goes!
Feel free to add me so we can encourage eachother!
Thanks,
Pandy

    First off, my condolences on your loss.

    Second, congrats on the beautiful gift of you son.

    My name is Viviana, I'm a mommy of 1 handsome little toddler (Nathaniel) and have two amazing step sons (16yrs & 14yrs) not to mention a supportive husband.

    Awesome that you joined a gym, I did so myself earlier this month with the desire to become a healthy mommy but also a healthy hottie, :wink: :wink:

    Nice to meet you! Keep up the good work and sweat it up sweetie!!! :happy:

    Welcome to the site, glad you are here! So sorry for your loss.
    I like yourself am motivated to stay healthy because of losing loved ones to disease. I find since I've changed my lifestyle to include healthier eating and exercise I have motivated my children (11 year old girl and 7 year old boy) to exercise with me and eat healthier too. My husband has always been active and physically fit and I have especially enjoyed sharing this newfound love of health with him too!
    Best of luck!
    By the way your profile pic is so cute.
