Well, my 35th birthday is 10 DAYS away and I really feel that I am truly on my way. I've lost 25 pounds, a ton of inches and I am much healthier than I was at this time last year. Can't wait to turn 36!
Now birthdays have always been about the cake and good times (good times usually include some "special juices") for me!! I have always looked at birthdays as a time to celebrate and live it up!! Never cared that I was getting older - always felt that each year would be better than the last! This year, I'm turning 35, very excited and really believe the next phase of my life will be the best yet, especially with this new lifestyle I've adopted! So, lets get back to the cake and special juice. I have three choices:
- It's my birthday, do it up right (that would include cake, special juice and whatever else I feel like having on that day!!
- Have a piece of cake OR one drink! One or the other and be satisfied with that!
- Have NO CAKE, NO DRINKS, just stay true to your program and do it up right at my half way mark (a couple of months!!)
Oh, what to do....we'll have to see how I feel. I don't plan on stressing about it. It's just when it comes to BIRTHDAY CAKE (well cake in general - oh, just got a memory flash of my friend's mom's carrot cake with cream cheese icing...oh my yumness), needless to say, I have a serious weakness - and quite a few of my friends can attest to this fact!! I think I may have to figure new ways to "celebrate" and "live it up" that do not necessarily include excess calories!!
Ideas and suggestions always welcomed...
Please take a minute to fill out the poll on the right (top). Thanks!
Until next time...

The Eat-Clean Diet for Family and Kids book has a healthy recipe for icing and cake... :) Eat that, then enjoy a few drinks :)
