Day 1 and counting

Today I decided to blog about my journey with loosing weight. I've been overweight all my life. I was a chubby kid and an overweight teenager. Last year I decided to do something about it. I thought I was serious but apparently I wasn't. Since last year I have lost 25 lbs. That is just unacceptable! I know what I need to do to lose weight but I refuse to do it. I love to snack, I snack when I'm bored, happy, sad and busy so I'm not an emotional eater. I just love to snack. I love salty and crunchy things, potato chips are my weakness.

So, today 8/8, I'm going to blog about my weight loss journey. It seems to work for others so maybe it will work for me.
