So what are you giving anything up for Lent? This is a prime time to start thinking about a change. Just think about it, whether or not you observe Lent (I actually don't although I am Christian, us Baptist don't give up stuff), it's a good time to start a new way of thinking. Now you might be asking what I'm going to give up, well that's a good question, I've been thinking all day about that, and to be honest, I can't think of anything that I could/would give up. I don't eat chips, cookies or desserts on a regular basis. Unless of course it's Butter Pecan Frozen Yogurt. Which I actually vowed not to buy after finishing that last 1/2 gallon. My suggestion, start with one thing a week and add something else next week. By Easter you'll have several not so healthy items already gone. And I bet you won't miss them either. Maybe give up those potato chips, then cookies next week. There are always healthy alternatives to those chips & cookies, fat free saltines & rice krisy treats are what I prefer. Also, try adding something during this time, whether it's an apple, more veggies & less meat or more exercise. Just think about how much better you'll feel when Easter rolls around and you could by that dress you were eyeing in a smaller size! Well, that's all for today.
Blessings & Rain,
Magnolia
