Up and Down

I often think of high school and all the friends that I used to have. It is not that I don't see or talk to any of them anymore because I do but it was just different. In high school it seemed like everything was such a big deal and now that I look back gosh it was easy. It sure is a lot harder now with kids and responsibilities. I often wonder if later in life I will think that it was easier now than then.
I always used to spend my high school days with friends. I was with the same friends all the time. It was always so fun. I had a friend that was always on a diet. However her diet never worked out for her. She would be on a crash diet every other week. I always thought it was funny because she would diet then eat a lot. That was for sure not diets that work. With a diet you have to be dedicated all the time to a life style change. I am realizing that now that I have been cutting back. It is really hard but you just have to get used to it. I personally find it easier to do it with a friend or partner. That way you can stick together and encourage one another.
