Happy Pants

I have my happy pants on the last couple weeks... (not sure what that means exactly but it sounded legit!)

As I mentioned a couple weeks ago, I have decided to not

worry about what my body is doing so much and to JUST DO IT!

Let me tell you I feel SO much better about myself and I feel like a much happier me!

It's so much easier to figure things out when you don't have to record everything

into an app or figure out how many calories I am burning compared to home much food I am eating....

those things are very helpful but I was getting so obsessed that I wanted to give up

cause I felt like I was constantly failing!

I have been finding fun things to do to workout, I have been biking A LOT the last couple weeks

and I have just been picking healthier choices when eating things.

Last weekend the BF and I decided we wanted to ride our bikes and we picked a different

trail that we had never been on, it was in Downtown Des Moines and it went to Ankeny, we rode a total of 

40 miles that day! It was So much fun to see something different then the same old

trail we always ride plus I love spending time with my BF  (just us),

he pushes me to go harder and furthur then I think I can when it's just us, mainly because

I have to keep up with him and he has to wait for me cause there is noone 

else around.

This is on the downtown bridge!

We met these fine folks at the Wheelhouse in Ankeny, where we of coarse had to have an Apple Pie Shot for my aunt Vicki's Birthday! :)

Then we had to hit up El Bait Shop in Downtown.

I also got to meet up with some good friends (whom I never get to see!) and we had a blast! :)

 After we had a great ride on Saturday we got up on Sunday and thought maybe we would do a short ride around Ames.... We did ride in Ames but we made it to Whiskey River and then to Tip Top! :)

We did manage to get in a whole 8 miles though.

Cheers to changing my lifestyle and going after what I really want in life! :)
(Not to mention I have had a few people ask if I have lost weight... that is a great way to brighten my mood!
I can't answer direct all I can say is I feel better and my clothes are a bit looser)
