Its my Birthday!!

Feb 07, 2011

I lost 3.5 lbs last week to start with....I dont expect to lose any this week though....it seems this has turned into my birthday "week" rather than just one day! LOL!!
Good thing too, since its going to be my last one EVER!!!! 39....thats it for me!!!

My honey gave me the best birthday gift EVER!
He said he is going to try to lose weight too!!!

Wait...it gets better....

He said that if he can lose 50lbs, he thinks he will feel comfortable enough to attempt to quit smoking too!!!
I am so impressed!!

However....now...the gentle and awkward task of finding a scale big enough to weigh him. The one at home only goes to 300lbs. I think maybe thats why he still thinks he only weights 300lbs....when the reality is that he is probably closer to 350

I know for myself, that stepping on the scale can be a daunting event, so I cant imagine how hard it must be to have to first FIND a scale that is big enough to weigh you. I feel for my poor honey...my heart goes out to him because I know that part of him is doing this as a support to me.....although I think a larger part of him is relieved to be able to just "say" that he is doing it for me when he really knows he should have done it years ago. Its almost like I gave him the reason he needed to convince himself that it is important.

Sometimes I think that men are worse than women when it comes to having "issues" LOL

So, this morning in the mirror, I took an extra long time scrutinizing my face very carefully and impartially....I checked very carefull and thankfully....could not find ONE SINGLE WRINKLE!!!

The fat plumps them out ;)

Gray hair on the other hand.....well thats another story

Happy Birthday to me! This is going to be the best year of my life....and my NEW one begins at 40 :)
