Yesterday was my BIRTHDAY!!!! The big 26!!! :glasses: :laugh: :bigsmile:

Heehee! And let's just say that between the fun-filled, mouth-stuffing, garbage-eating, beer-drinkning weekend coupled with my birthday yesterday I managed to pack on 4 lbs of water weight from all the nasty foods and adult beverages!!! GEEZZZ!!! :sick:

Normally I would be upset but... I it's already dropping off... you know since it is water weight. Plus, I rarely drink alcohol so I always bloat up like a blowfish when I do. :drinker: The salty, appetizer-type foods definitely don't help! :noway:

Anyway, I'm just glad I survived the first day of the down-side of my twenties!!! Haha!!! :laugh:

Cheers!!! :drinker:

    I know exactly what you mean... I definitely understand why I gained and (TRUST ME) I can feel those 4 lbs on my body which is going to make working out today EXTRA hard! :grumble: BUT I will feel so good whenI'm done... plus it will help to get rid of this excess water my body is lugging around.

    All in all, I am motivated to get moving today but a bit sluggish from my puffy, water-balloon body. Heehee! I acutally decided that I'm not going to "check-in" that extra weight today... instead I am going to work my tail off this week and if the 4lbs are still there Friday then I will check them in. :wink:

    Deal????:huh:

    Deal!!!!:bigsmile:

    I very much agree with you... So many of my friends talk about how they would love to go back to the high school, college days, etc. NOT ME!!!

    My life has only gotten better and better with each year! Meeting my husband, then getting married, then having our precious little boy... ahhh, I love my life! Not to mention, I have a job I truly love too. Like everyone, I have my hard days/weeks but I consider myself so blessed for sure!

    Thank you so much for the positive outlook on life! :flowerforyou:
