It's My Birthday! Bday Pics; Cookies!

So, had a nice bday weekend before the actual day. We had absolutely wonderful weather here in southern CA. Took my Fit at 53 pics on Saturday so 2 days before the bday but close enough for comfort. We ran a few errands on Saturday & sat later for a coffee & were able to view a beautiful sky of colors around sunset. OH, earlier in the day I ate up bikini girl in my cookie pic below. She was brown sugar cinnamon flavor & was YUMMY!! A couple of my dearest friends, Patti & Gregg, sent them to me. I take credit for getting them married too!
Sunday I had a great morning run & a beautiful sunrise! My hubby worked on the Fit at 53 pics. I made him smooth out the lines in my face BUT you will see them anyway in my "eating a cookie" pics! Oh well. We did NOT alter the bod in the Fit pics though! Later we went out & enjoyed the beautiful weather after a couple errands & then I ate that 2nd cookie for the weekend!
I had the cartoon above posted last year & I LOVE IT so using it again! I am going to live by that saying for today at least! Some may say I use it too often!
Here are some pics from 50 to now & a few others.....
Fit at 50 in Hawaii

Fit at 51 Fit at 52 Fit at 53



Fit at 53 One of my fav kid pics!


So, here is my cookie bouquet from Patti & Gregg. I ate the brown sugar cinnamon bikini girl on Saturday. Sunday, I ate the cute sun cookie & you will see proof below!!!! Oh, BTW, Patti & Gregg picked this bouquet cause they know how much I love Hawaii!





Yes, I did eat the rest of that cute face on the sun cookie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, I will keep fighting the good fight thru hormones & all! I work out very hard & eat clean most of the time BUT I also allow time for fun & that means my cookie fun too!
I don't think I look quite as good this year as last year but I have been fighting a lot of hormone issues. I do the best I can with what I have and I think that is all any of us can do.
I am not saying that anyone out there has to be as crazy as I am & work as hard as I do to stay this lean at 53 but we all have the power within us to just do something.
Just try to move each day & do what you can to live a healthy & happy life. That is what counts.
As always, feel free to email me and/or ask questions.
Thank you so much for all your support & kindness always!








Happy B-day to you, happy b-day to you...
My wishes to you are that hormones stop acting up. I know what a nuisance they can be.
And you look fabulous.
