Something to celebrate

Well, it is a good birthday morning! 37... and over 65+ pounds lighter than where I was at age 36! I guess I can't complain about that at all. In fact, definitely something to celebrate! And best of all, I didn't gain any weight over Thanksgiving weekend. Well, okay, I'm a smidge up this morning because we went to The Melting Pot (a Fondue Restaurant) last night for our birthday dinner. Dennis's bday was yesterday, and mine is today... so Lucia "took" us out for our dinner. Very cute! We had a nice time. In fact, all weekend was great. Dinner with some friends on Thursday, saw family Friday/Saturday, then the three of us went to Busch Gardens Christmas shin-dig on Saturday night and yesterday started decorating for Christmas. I like these kinds of weekends! We're heading to my cousin's wedding later this week, so I will get to wear the dress and Lucia will get to dress up like a princess which she is VERY excited about. I'm getting ready to go out and run/walk, so hopefully I will burn it off!!! Happy Monday everyone...

Happy Birthday Sarah!! I'm glad your weekend was so nice. It seems like everyone handled Thanksgiving well.I love the Melting Pot - we have them here too. I could easily eat more than I'm supposed to there.
I hope you get spoiled a little today.

Congrats and Happy Birthday princess! I love the chocolate and cheese at the melting pot! YUM! Isn't it great to know that as we get older, we are losing weight and getting even sexier?

Happy birthday. So amazing to think that this year you won't be worried about the scale and this year marks the end of your first year of being banded successfully.

You're doing great and look even better!

Kinzie said...

Oh! Happy happy birthday. I wish I had been banded when I was 37 - you are coming into the best years so enjoy!

Happy Birthday! I just turned 36 and hope to be celebrating my weight loss accomplishments at 37 as well! Can't wait to see you in the dress for the wedding!
