Did you survive Fat Tuesday? I did, and I barely went over my points plus. Hard to believe!
I am not Catholic, but I appreciate (and often observe Lent) because I believe it is important to practice self discipline intentionally to grow closer to the Lord. It's also a good character trait in anyone. Self discipline is very important, especially when thinking about living a healthy lifestyle.
In light of this, I really thought of Ash Wednesday this year as a chance to have a fresh start and practice some self discipline in my nutrition and wellness. It was a good chance for me to resolve to track and be diligent about monitoring what I am putting in my body. [My Lenten promise is something different, but that's just for God and me to share :) ]
If you could have a fresh start right now, what habits would you like to change in your life? And what is holding you back from making those changes? The answer to those questions will likely be very empowering as you move forward in living a healthier lifestyle.
In all honesty, I wrote a completely different blog post, but it was entirely too heavy to post today; somehow the timing wasn't right... I know, that's a teaser.
Have a wonderful weekend!
