Birthday!

Well friends, I can't believe the birthday is almost here. It is a really exciting time of the year for me. I love celebrating birthdays, and I am trying really hard this year to not make it an excuse to eat poorly. (although it is hard) I do however plan on enjoying myself, and just being really aware of my portion size.

One of the major benchmarks from this whole goal was that I was going to give up Mac and cheese from January 1st on to my birthday. Well in two day.. that is over. I am so proud of myself, I have gone over six months with out eating one of the foods that I used to crave, and used as an emotional eating tool.

I can not wait to experience this food just as a food. I feel it has lost a lot of the power it had, now it will be a food that I like, but know I can live without.

Pretty exciting.
