I did it. I fasted and it was great. Much easier than I had ever expected. I lost 5 lbs but Ryan lost 11lbs! Not that he even needed to lose a single pound. He’s gained back 6 lbs just this week and I have managed to lose a bit more so I am feeling good. I needed to do something to feel young and healthy since today is the big 40.
Ryan was amazing as usual. He totally surprised me on Friday. We did a hardcore scene for the site and then all of my employees just left or went home early and no one seemed to care about my birthday. Ryan told me to be ready to leave the house by 2:00 PM. I had no idea where we were going. He drove us down to Newport Beach and we checked into the Balboa Bay Club. It was a pefect day and we sat outside and had a drink while waiting to go up to our room. We changed for dinner and Ryan kept rushing me. We sat outside again and looked out over the harbour. We ordered caviar, raw oysters and dover sole. It was lovely. We then took a walk and came upon a gondola. Ryan told me to hop in. Yet another surprise. The gondola traveled around and then stopped dead in the water. We sat there and then I started to laugh because I hd no clue as to why were simply parked in the middle of the harbour. I looked over to my right where there was a huge yaght traveling way too close to us. I thought it might hit us and then I saw a bunch of people on deck yelling my name. Holy shit, it was my family and friends there for my party. I climbed aboard and started crying of course. I don’t know how he did it. There were over 60 people. Aunts and Uncles, cousins, sisters, all of our employees, friends and loved ones. I danced, partied and I had the best time of my life.
