Twenty years old today! Super nervous and excited to be an "adult" without the "eenager" part... Hoping to lose 20 more pounds during my 20th year of life, it's been super rough but im halfway there!

    I'm 28 with a job, health insurance, retirement plan, a house, a car....



    Don't you dare call me an adult though.

    When I was a kid, people encouraged me to take naps and eat. Now I get yelled at for doing them. What the heck happened?
    Anyway, happy birthday young lady! Have a wonderful day filled with love, laughter and happiness.

    Happy birthday!!

    Advice from a 60 yo guy:
    Take up health as a hobby.
    Healthy is the new skinny:
    Eat well
    Sleep well
    Exercise
    Meditate/Pray
    Have a hobby
    Make friends

    Pay attention to weight as just one of several numbers that reflect your health:
    % body fat, blood pressure, resting heart rate, total cholesterol, HDL/LDL ratio, blood suger,
    number of sit-ups and push-ups you can do in 60 seconds, and the time it takes you to run 1.5 miles
    Also: have a physical once a year, and never ever under any circumstances have unprotected sex.

    May you live a long meaningful and enriching life.
    And, may your soul be in Heaven at least a half an hour before the Devil knows you're gone
