Weight loss Journey to being 20lbs lighter!

So I was going to start posting crafts and makeup tips on my blog but that's just going to have to wait for now. I have recently motivated myself to lose 20lbs. Its something that I've been wanting to do but just kept making excuses. Well no more excuses for me... this is going to happen and I'm very excited for the end results and the journey in between. I would love any support and would love to support others in their weight loss goals as well.

So I started my journey yesterday. First I weighed myself which I haven't done in years and promised myself I would only weight myself to see my progress and not as an unhealthy obsession. I started my morning with plain low fat yogurt and some fruit. For lunch I had an apple and some veggies (I know it doesn't seem like much but I actually got full from it.) Dinner was my favorite! I had a burrito bowl which is a burrito with no tortilla. It had brown rice, lettuce, guac, salsa and small portion of organic chicken. I felt very tempted to have a small snack an hour later but I realized that I wasn't hungry and I wanted to eat out of boredom. Being aware of when I'm actually hungry verses when I just feel like eating is a big step for me.

Today will be day two and I'll let you know how it goes!!! Happy weight loss!!!

First Post... Hooray!!!

Ok so I'm new to the whole blogging thing. I'm going to start posting fun info like fashion and makeup tips I learn, craft tutorials, money saving tips, ebay and picker advice, fitness tips etc. So hopefully people find my blog fun and I hope to have fun writing it. I'm not the best with words and writing but I'll do my best:)

I'll end this very short posting with a quote from Abraham Hicks who I very much admire... "When you ask it is given. But at some point you have to stop asking and start expecting."
