Road Trip

I flew into Salt Lake City Airport Friday, July 30th and stopped at Bethany’s to relax for a few hours before I head out on my 5-6 hour road trip to Craigs, CO for my best friend Tanya’s wedding. My trip there ended up being about 7 hours because I had to stop and capture the scenery and sunset.

My first view area was Strawberry Lake

Healthier Me!!

#1 Problem
Since moving out to my own apartment I have been finding anyway and every way to lower my budget to fit my needs. In the last few years I was diagnosed with a hormone imbalance where I was taking prescription medication for for about a year in half. Then I started taking supplements to help which does but now I am not able to really afforded them. So I did some research on how I can naturally balance those hormones.

This is what I read...
Diet
  • Drink Soy and eat Soy Products
  • Lower Fat Intake (cut back on meat and animal proteins)
Exercise
  • The more you exercise the lower the levels of hormones in your body
Stress
  •   Regulate Cortisol the stress hormone by learning stress techniques and get plenty of sleep.

#2

While researching the exercises I wanted to find a program on line that helped me with a wight lifting and nutrition guides. That would help understand what exercises to do and how many and tell me what vitutims/minerals I am actually eating everyday. Also how what my calorie in take is. I found Free Trainer, the last 2 days I found that I lacked Vitamin E and Zinc. Every thing else is good. than I looked up what the symptoms or deficiency were from not having enough intake from these. Not enough Vitamin E can result in
mild hemolytic anemia I haven't been diagnosed with this officially but I do know I have some type of anemia and this one is the only one that makes since with the lack of vitamins I am not getting.

If I can get Vitamin E and Zinc into my body I am hoping it will help.  I am hoping with these 2 solutions I will feel healthier, have a clearer face and better attitude!!!!

If you ask Kaitlyn the only reason she got to see this hot air balloon is because Vans shoes make her run fast. David would be proud.

While hanging out at the pool during Memorial day there so many butterflies fling around at the Ambrose's sister’s house. they seemed to like me. i think 4 of them landed on me. I had to get a picture of one of them. So took out the camera and waited.
