Start of a new era (or my Birthday is coming up)

Birthday_cake

I will be honest and say that there will be no eating healthy this week.  It’s my birthday and I am expecting to pig out.  And I’m not kidding about that…as I write this blog, I am eating a bag of potato chips.

I know for a lot of people, birthdays wreak havoc on their mental health…they see their lives passing by and that they feel like they are losing time.  I try and keep away from that line of thinking.  Every year brings wisdom, and with wisdom comes peace.

But it is my birthday and birthdays do mean presents.  So here is a list of things that I would like to get on my birthday.

1.   Scientists to discover that you only need to exercise once a week for 30 minutes to stay healthy

2.  Chocolate that takes weight off instead of putting it on

3.  Potato chips that don’t go straight to your hips

4.  Scientists to discover that bacon, steaks and Kentucky Fried Chicken are a great source of the good cholesterol

5.  Butter to be a good source of anti-oxidants.

Somehow I don’t think I’m going to get any of these items for my birthday, but no worries.

There will still be plenty of cake.

haha! that’s quite the list of birthday requests!
My birthday is in 2 months, do you think we’ll have better chance of seeing some of those things come true if I wish for the same things?
it’s worth a shot!
