July Already?

Eesh.  Time goes by so fast these days.  The older I get, the faster it seems to go.  I keep worrying that I'm going to blink and I'll wake up 90 years old.  Crazy thoughts!

Starting Weight: 162.2
Today's Weight: 157.8

I survived the weekend!  I did overeat a bit at Texas Roadhouse on Friday (I had to go to a bridal shower there), but I actually logged my calories beforehand and knew exactly what I was eating and how much.  I think it kept me more in check that it normally would have because those Texas Roadhouse rolls (at 225 calories each!) are freaking delicious.  Normally I scarf those suckers down but I kept it in check.

Saturday I was SO tired.  No idea why.  But I actually took TWO naps in one day which is pretty much ridiculous.  I've never done that before.  I think I was fighting off a cold and so my body just needed the rest.  I woke up feeling better and even took some time to go on a 10 mile bike ride.  I originally didn't intend to push all that hard on it (just wanted a relaxing ride) but the sun set on me halfway through the ride so I had to book it home so I wouldn't be riding in the dark!  Oops!  It felt good to get the heart rate up and to push hard.  I was totally exhausted once I got home!

By the way, I will be gone for half this week.  I am going to Lake Powell for some lovely time in the sun!  I cannot wait to see the lovely views again:

Yes, please!  It's going to be about 5 days in the sun and I cannot wait to get my needed dose of Vitamin D. Booyah.  Sadly, I will miss the 4th of July fireworks but I suppose I am willing to give those up in exchange for Lake Powell!

How are you celebrating the 4th of July holiday?
