The heat is gonna kill me - I reached a major goal

I have lived in Louisiana for three years now but I've never actually spent a summer here. I'm starting to realize that maybe I don't comprehend how awful it could be...

I went out at about 9:00 am today to go to the track and only got 8 laps in before the heat was killing me... I hate driving to the gym everyday but going to the track is going to require getting out of the house a lot earlier in the morning.

When I started working out in March I had set a goal for the end of the school year. I wanted to lose 35 pounds by May 25th. I'm a few days late, but I have now lost 34.8 pounds! (I know I'm rounding up just a tiny bit.) I'm so excited!

I detest pictures of myself so I don't take any, but now I wish I had taken some "before" shots just to see the difference. Oh well. Part of the reason I have not prioritized pictures and talking about numbers goals has been because my focus is truly on getting strong enough to hike Timpanogos. I really don't doubt that I could do it at this point. Right now I just have to get to Utah and wait for some of the snow to melt... PLEASE MELT! (But no too fast. I don't want it to flood the valley below... Just slow and steady melting so I don't need snowshoes...)
