I'm trying to "bank" extra calories for my birthday on Wednesday. I can't believe that I'm going to be 36-years old. It is one year closer to 40! I don't like the idea that I'm past my prime without ever knowing what my "prime" could have been. But, that is just one more motivation for losing this weight.
This week I have really been making my own health and well-being a priority, and that feels good. And, I don't think that it deprived my children or family in any way. Though, being calorie deprived does make me a bit more "snappy".
