Question
Hi

Do you have any tips for me - i want to lose 10 pounds!

Answer
Hi Anne,

If you are asking will lemon juice with hot water help you to lose weight; the answer is no.  For some people drinking plenty of water does help to suppress the appetite.

You will help to reduce your caloric intake and engage in some activity.  Keep in mind that it take 3500 to gain a pound, so you will have to reduce your take by 500 - 1000 calories daily to lose 1 - 2 pounds a week.  Exercising will greatly help to speed up your weight loss efforts.

Warm Regards,

Helen
