    Happy Birthday.

    Just try and make the best choices possible. Indulge a little if you really want to, but don't over do it.

    Enjoy yourself....

    Happy Birthday :flowerforyou:

    1. try on some tight clothes before you go out
    2. remember how they felt
    3. you are worth the temporary saying No


    4. BUT say yes to some things -it's your BIRTHDAY!! have a good time!! drink lots of water - plan an exercise push and maybe a day of low cal the next day!!

    I agree with the above! My birthday is Friday and I'm working out hard all week so that I can enjoy myself and indulge a little. :wink:

    Do you have an idea of where you are going? Are you going to dinner or drinks? If you know where you are going, you could look at the menu and figure out something that would work for you. Also, you should enjoy your birthday. Have a little, I mean a little bit of cake too, if you are having that. Even if you did eat 4000 calories, it isn't the end of the world. The next day you go back to your good eating habits. Just do things in moderation.

    Happy birthday.

    Have one small slice of cake, not 3 or 4.

    Have one alcoholic beverage and make it last... not guzzle 3 in an hour.

    Munch on carrots instead of chips.

    (I don't know what kind of birthday celebration you are having... lol)

    ENJOY YOUR BIRTHDAY, FOR PETE'S SAKE! It only comes once a year! Just don't go overboard. :drinker:

    My birthday was in June and here's what I did...ate a small peanut butter blondie that a friend made for me and gave the others away. Ordered one cocktail at dinner and ate half a cheeseburger. Had a regular sized piece of cake (it was chocolate raspberry from scratch, come onnn!). I ate a light salad for lunch. When I went out that night I had 3 beers and I did not feel guilty about going a little over my calories. Just keep your portion sizes small and don't feel bad to indulge...your bday only comes around once a year!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! :flowerforyou: :glasses: :drinker:

    Everybody here's got it right!!! :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    Enjoy your day and Celebrate!!! :drinker:
    Maybe with a little sumthin' new & sassy to wear?
    SHOW OFF that 20 lbs. down. Make 'em sweat!! :laugh: :bigsmile:

    It helps me to plan ahead if possible. Look at a menu and makes some choices.
    Decide what things are most enjoyable and forget about the rest.
    And if ya go over a bit, no worries! Enjoy & start again..........

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:flowerforyou: :heart: :flowerforyou:

    Hey! Happy birthday.
    Today is my birthday also.
    I'm going to the chinese buffet. I plan to enjoy myself since Bday only comes only once a year.
    I plan to take a small sample of all the food.
    Usually I actualy eat less when I go to a buffet. Since tasting all the food..sactisfy my taste.
