Self, good day

Hey friends!

Thanks for all the love and support I got. It is appreciated. I was a bit apprehensive in putting it online for the world to see but I know I need to be accountable and this is a great way to do it! Today went well. I was hungry, like always when you restrict your diet you feel hungary. But I tried hard to stick to healthy and no sweet options. I am happy to report that I ate two salads and did really well. I am also very proud of myself! I stuck to only one sweet thing today and this is a huge feat as I am always wanting something sweet. I also drank a ton of water.
My ride went really well today. I am currently riding my moms pink beach cruiser, it is fun to ride on but there is one drawback that is probably a plus. It doesn't have gears so the pedal was all me carrying myself up town and back. But I loved it, it was a hot day but you don't notice until you stop because the breese keeps you cool! Also the whole of 800 east might be slightly declined because I was going fast and not really working as hard as I did the other way. All in all a great ride.
A couple things I have been thinking about, I spend a lot of time schooling and working. Part of the reason the weight needs to come off is because I am going to be a school teacher in a little over a year and I will need to be in the classroom standing all day. I need to make sure I am doing my part and that means being a better me. Another thing I have been thinking about is how busy I get and time passes and I do not get all done that I wanted to. So I am making a list for this summer, fall, and winter of things I would like to do, first go up the canyon, I love to look at the stars and I love a good campfire, I cannot wait to do something fun. Second I love plays and musicals, I want to see a couple of the ones they will be doing at the Scera, plus I would love to go to the tuachan and the Shakespearian festival. Lastly I want to go to seven peaks. In the fall I would love to take a weekend and go to Disneyland, just a quick trip but I always wanted to see the pumkin mickey mouse magic. In the winter I want to spend more time enjoying Christmas, it feels like it comes and goes so fast I would like to go to temple square, the river bottoms, and maybe take some time off work to just love the holiday. I just want to love being alive, and experiencing life! I turn 30 in September and I just am feeling like it is time to stop letting time pass so fast being so busy and just time to start loving life you know?
I don't know how many are reading this and I am not sure if this will be a daily thing forever but for now it is helping so keep on keeping and never give up your dreams!
