Surely it's ok to indulge a little on your birthday isn't it?

What would your indulgence be and why?

I'm enjoying an Almond Magnum ice cream and some Ferraro Roche which are absolutely delicious :-)

Not very motivational I know so apologies for that everyone!

    Cake. Cake is my favorite food (although now its just a treat) but on my birthday I was all over that cake.

    Cake for me. I love all the kinds of cake that are out there, and cheesecake especially.

    My birthday is next week and we're going away this weekend to celebrate.. there will be good food, cake and probably ice cream involved.

    Ferrero Rocher are my favorite chocolates might have to pick some of those up too!

    My birthday is next week and I've already planned to have grilled steak and snow crab legs (at home) and make a 13 layer fudge cake to celebrate ;)
    I'm going to take the rest of the cake to my neighbor after me and my boyfriend have birthday dinner!

    I haven't had a decent German chocolate cake in years. Bakeries up here are slightly clueless. I try to stay in my calorie goal since I'm probably going out to eat. Sodium, otoh, breaks the ceiling.

    A creamy pasta dish.

    A for cake (which I love!!!!!!!), I actually really enjoy making my own cake. Every year, I research what I'm gonna make! I love to bake and I don't do it a lot because I would eat everything, so that's my thing on my BDAY.

    Also, on my birthday I always buy myself a nice gift. 2 years ago I got an amazing necklace at swarovski. Last year, I think I couldn't think of anything, but next year- a hair straightener. But like a good one. :tongue:

    I ate almost all of the icing off of a quarter sheet cake at my last birthday. I think i grossed out my mother in law but whatever. SO worth all those calories!!!!

    @cdealtry, is today your birthday? Mine too! I hope you're enjoying!

    Today's indulgence are a couple homemade chocolate chip cookies (with almond extract, not vanilla) at work and a peanut butter/chocolate dessert thing my mom's making for dessert. My BF and I will celebrate next week, so I may have a bit more indulgence next week, too.

    Nom!!!

    I never met a cake I didn't like. It's my birthday in two weeks so I am looking forward to some treats. The problem I have is that we will be on holiday so I fear the treats will spread over 7 days. I"ll bring my running shoes with me though!

    My birthday is next week. I try to splurge on luxury things like a massage, hair cut/color, mani/pedi and a little shopping. Since I am so busy that day being pampered, I don't indulge to bad. But I do have some DQ ICE CREAM CAKE! That fudgy crunchy layer in the middle---- ohhh yum! This year I plan on only buying the cupcake version and enjoying. I just got to stop myself and only buying one cupcake though- I used to celebrate the entire week!

    It's my birthday on Friday, and I've made plans with some friends to do yoga, followed by Mexican food. :-) Will definitely have a margarita with my dinner, although I don't know about dessert.

    And on Saturday, my roommate and I are going out for lunch, too. But before lunch, a nice long run!

    I fully intend to have a slice or two of this for my Birthday tomorrow. :)

    It is layers of chocolate cake, with a chocolate ganache icing, and a bonus layer of cheesecake.

    Zaxby's Birthday Cake Milkshake. They don't always have them, but I hoping I can get one next week for my birthday.

    Everything I want. I only get one birthday a year, I'm not physically capable of doing that much damage in one day. Let's say I actually managed to overeat by 7000 calories, unlikely but feasible, that is only 2lbs. I can make up for that the other 364 days a year.
