Weight loss challenge day 1

I just returned from vacation. As part of my return I have challenged myself to eat healthier and lose weight. Over the last few years I have let myself go and frankly i need to lose weoght bad. I also look at my little boy and want to be here as long as I can for him. He is my world.

The first step i have taken is to reduce my soda intake. One ofy worst vices is drinking soda. I had about 1/3 the normal amount I would drink.

The second is to eat a salad for either lunch or dinner every day. Today my salad was Spinach, sweet peppers, celery, red onion, mushrooms, avacado, carrot and some roasted red pepper vinagerette dressing.

Please cheer me on and keep me going.
