Awesome birthday NSV

Hey everyone! Today I went running, even though it was raining. I stuck to my calorie goals. I got a salad when we went out for dinner, even though I wanted something fattening. These are small things really, since I do them every day, but I'm proud because today is my 19th birthday! Even though everyone around me told me to live a little for my birthday, I stuck to my goals. Last year, I used my birthday as an excuse to eat whatever I wanted and ended up binging for a few days, and ultimately quitting this site. This year I'm so much more dedicated I KNOW I'm going to succeed!!!



(Please note: My family is normally REALLY supportive of me, they were in no way trying to sabotage my success! They just see anything festive as an excuse to take the day off, which doesn't work for me personally.

    I also just had a birthday! Congrats on sticking to your guns. I did over eat a teeny bit, and went over my calorie goal by about 300. Had I not been so exhausted a good workout would have balanced it out!! Keep up the good work. With your attitude you will go far!!! :)

    Congrats on making the choice to stick to your goal of healthy eating. Your birthday can be celebrated other ways not by eating unhealthy and you proved that by enjoying your special day doing wonderful things that will benefit you in the long run. Keep up the great attitude.
