Today's my birthday and I hope I don't overdo!

OK, to start out....Today is one of my birthdays, the one my Mother and Daddy gave me 52 years ago. My other birthday is April 29th, the day I got my band and really started living again. I have not one, not two, not three but FOUR birthday events planned for me! I just hope I can keep it under control! LOL I went and saw my doctor for my 2 week checkup after surgery and told him I was going to my nephew's wedding that weekend and I would be so tempted to eat some of the wedding cake. He told me there were two types of cake he allowed...wedding and birthday. So I plan on following doctor's orders today for sure! ;-) I guess this thread is my lame way of conning happy birthdays from y'all and also to kind of hope by putting this in writing I won't go out and make a big ole pig of myself and regret it later.

You guys are the best!!!!!!!! Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes! I'm very happy to report that I didn't overdo at all....my band wouldn't let me and trust me, I tried! LOL I love the Dallas Cowboys and my sister made me a football cake shaped like a football and I enjoyed a small piece of cake and loved every bite of it! My son bought a sugar-free red velvet cake for another one of my parties and I ate a little bit of that, too. But all in all, I was pretty darn good. I was worried that I'd really go overboard but this little band of mine kept tabs on me! It still amazes me that I actually get full on such a small amount of food! Ain't this band great! Nearly as great as you all are!:(

Happy Birthday!! Enjoy that Cake....like the dr. says.

Oops, I'm a little late too, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! My band doesn't like cake, which WAS my favorite desert. Comes back everytime, is that good news or bad news, lol.
