    I eat whatever I want, but normally I crave things that are pretty healthy.

    Worst case scenario, I have a flavored tea with a lot of sugar, or something with gluten.

    I will treat myself to a good dark beer, and a cocktail or two though!

    My advice... plan ahead. Allow yourself the freedom to treat yourself to something celebratory (i.e. cupcake, brownie), just don't eat the entire cake. My birthday is in 2 days and I'm plannig on working out extra that morning to cover the extra calories I'll likely consume. Think about the bigger picture...how it will feel when you've attained your goal...now that's a birthday present worth getting!

    Hey, my birthday is in two days too! Happy birthday to us! I think we deserve some birthday cake on our special day - all of us. But keep things under control so we start our next year on the right foot :)

    Nope. It's a lifestyle change. Not a lifestyle change until a holiday or party comes. It's ok to have a small slice of cake, but we shouldn't reward or celebrate with food. We eat to live not live to eat.

    My birthday was yesterday too! I went over my calories, but I had a larger dinner and a beer. I had a small piece of cake at work, but that's all.

    I'm celebrating with my family this weekend, so I'm doing my very best to stay on track this week.
