Losing a few pounds....OK I'll try!

I'm sitting here at my desk on a Friday afternoon and noticed I'm trying real hard to lose a few pounds. Cloey & I are hitting the gym with a new trainer and I'm trying to eat right. I'm having a snack that is veggie crunchers and it's not that bad, but my taste buds are srceaming at me for something greasey or sweet. I must control my eating habits and I will end up like my father. Sick, tired, and just ready to give up, but I told Cloey I would try to out live her. I really don't see that happening so I guess I will try anyway.
I'm just glad I never took up smoking, drinking, or doing drugs, because it's got to be worse than losing a few pound. My goal is to always be here for my girls!
