So, Cedar Point was mostly awesome. I say mostly because it was hot as balls - how hot is that by the way? 98.6°F or a little less because of...um...gravity? Well, it was about 94°F at Cedar Point yesterday, so perhaps it really was hot as balls. Anywho, it was also mostly awesome because I fit in everything...except Wicked Twister. Nasur crapped out on us for Wicked Twister because, well, his first roller coaster experience was this year and some of the big ones are simply too terrifying for his little African brain to handle. While waiting in line [for less than 10 minutes - wooo!], Danny said to me that the only coaster he was afraid I wouldn't fit on was Wicked Twister because of my boobs. I really didn't think about it too much, but then the guy ahead of me who wasn't really all that big barely fit and he didn't have boobs, so I was pretty sure I was doomed. And it didn't bother me too much, but I mean, I have fit in that ride before and I'm pretty sure my boob size wasn't significantly different. I'm pretty sure I was just larger. So I've got that to work on. I also, for the first time in my life, tried the test seats without shame, because the more mature Danika figured it was better to try the test seat than wait forever to get on a ride and not fit.

| With the ferris wheel |
I'm not all that surprised, to be honest. My scrub pants are getting tighter, my bras and underwear are feeling smaller, and my face just looks fuller.
So, I've got some goals for the month of September:
- Finish eating at 8pm every day
- Track calories as much as possible and guess when unsure
- Hit up the gym 3-5 times per week
- Skip the dessert
- Lose at least 8 pounds
I'm hoping these will be easy goals to stick to. The calorie tracking is going to take some work - it's hard to remember sometimes. The gym trips won't be so hard if I just go after work - it's hard to go if I don't go right after work. Skipping the dessert won't be so hard this month because I'm on primary care and mostly away from the workroom where all the goodies live. And hopefully by following 1-4, losing at least 8 pounds will be easy. Wish me luck!

| Protein smoothie to help keep me full for longer |
