Today is my birthday and I want to eat something that I really, really, enjoy. I usually like sweets on my birthday but I have a coupon from one of my favorite fun places for some fried pickles. Now I don't eat a lot of fried foods but I feel that since I have been on track as far as eating is concerned, should I indulge myself. I decided yesterday at dinner with friends not to have cake and ice cream.

I have started planning for this stuff. I was going out with my girls for the first time in MONTHS a few weeks ago, so I did a few extra work outs and adjusted my eating that weekend to prepare.
Also, I've found I just can't eat as much junk as I used to.
I say indulge (and maybe throw in a few extra minutes of cardio in tomorrow).0 -

Happy birthday! Fried pickles sounds like a great birthday treat! My birthday is this Friday and I'm still trying to decide where I want to eat out that night. :drinker:0

Then do it! After all it IS your birthday. Track it and move on. One day is not gonna kill you. If you deprive yourself, you will fail. Sometimes, you just have to DO IT! I would but that's me. lol
Oh and happy birthday. Hope you have a super duper day. :P0 -

Happy Birthday!!!! You bet you should indulge on your birthday! Just be careful, if your body is used to healthy foods now it might rebel against fried food. That happened to me recently. Have a great time!!!!0

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! you only have one birthday a year, have your pickles and if you want it, get a bowl of ice cream or a slice of your own birthday cake. A year ago I was just like you, really afraid to indulge or go over my calories, but I've learned that this is no race, you have forever to lose this weight and trust me, you dont want your memories to be tinted by your worry over your in take.
Today, do what you want, it's a special day. Tomorrow, work out a little harder and push yourself a bit. This week, eat healthy, train hard, and I doubt you'll even see a difference in your weight.0 -
Happy B Day!
Mine is tomorrow!
YAY!0
