    My June was pretty good. I maintained my sobriety streak even despite going to a very specific social event in which I normally drink and smoke heavily. Instead I had a lovely time swimming and enjoying the sun with my friends.

    I’ve ridden ~500 miles on my motorcycle and have loved every minute of it.

    I’ve gained ~10 lbs from consistently eating breakfast and lunch. And given that my job is quite physical a solid chunk of the weight gained has been muscle. My arms are noticeably bigger which feels great ngl.

    My goals now are to continue on with what I’ve started and build up on my successes. I’ll be picking up some weights soon to start doing heavier lifting. And once I have the money saved up for it I’ll be buying a nice rowing machine to get my back stronk and to replace my cardio since I’m no longer riding my bicycle as much as I was. As far as being midway through the year, I feel like I’m happy with the progress that I made despite not having any new years resolutions
