A health, fitness, and weight-loss story.

49




Today is my 49th birthday. My, how time flies.  I was asked what I wanted for my birthday, I shared what i wanted, and told to order it.  My Champion EZ Barbell arrived and I love it!  I also got a kettlebell DVD which is on its way and lifting straps.  It's a fitness birthday.

I could go to a nice restaurant for dinner, but instead, much to the family's dismay, I chose Subway.  I can count my calories, get some veggies, and get full.  No chance of messing up there.  I may get an ice cream cone at McDonald's for 150 calories.  Or not.  I need to check their website, it's been awhile.  

My birthday gift to myself was the best:  On plan.  I've been on plan, working out, counting calories, not dinking around, since June 17.  Ten days now.  You have to love yourself, and that was the best thing I could do for myself.  I have lost pounds, my body is changing, my legs are screaming at me LOL.  Yup, that is the best gift.

  3. Happy Birthday!! Wonderful gifts!! Sorry I'm late to the party--I did wish you happy birthday on your facebook wall.
    The best gift, indeed. By the way--McDonalds has mysteriously upped the calories on the vanilla soft serve cone---from 150 to 170. Must have changed ingredients or something--I don't know. I hope your birthday was fantastic, young lady!
