Starting Lent early!

Well January was full of excuses. Too much cold, too much snow, and too many events. So now that I'm done saying that I'm so over January now. Because I didn't budge in my weight this past month that means that's even more I need to work on this month. I'm going to do my best. First off, going to the grocery store tonight to get veggies, fruits, and other items to make sure I have enough to eat at home and at work. If I pack things with me then I don't dive for the candy jars.

Infact next week starts Lent season allthough I will be starting my lent season TODAY. I've finally decided I'm giving up sweets/desserts and fast food (this means any place with a drive thru). As I know I can't avoid eating out all together because of family outtings and such but I can restrict what I can control. Most people give up one thing... and it takes 40 days to break a habit... well Lent is 40 days so here I go. What is funny is that I am a "Saint" when it's Lent season on the items I give up but the rest of the year I seem to struggle. I believe that if I give up certain things all together like I have with soda maybe that's the key to my success... what has candy or BK ever done for me other then keep me plump?

I'm struggling with weight loss right now and as much as I'd fully like to blame it on the meds I'm on, I know that some of it is my choices. So instead of looking forward to Peeps and a chocolate bunny on easter when Lent is over... I want to look forward to a fabulous new spring dress and what goes better with a dress then some new shoes!
