Lent

Well today is the first day of Lent, Ash Wednesday.  I was a good Catholic girl today and I went with some of my co-workers to get my ashes.  Before today, I can't even tell you the last time I got my ashes.  This year I am giving up Facebook for Lent! I also vow to go to church every Sunday during Lent and I hope to continue church-going past Lent as I'd like to become a more spiritual person (as much as I can, lol)_).  

Last week I started back doing my strict WW routine, following the points system, exercising at least a 1/2 hour 5x/week, etc.  In addition, I gave up red meat (I am going to try to do this forever) and I'd like to slowly cut back on my dairy intake.  I started this by replacing milk with Light Silk soy milk, which I love! The chocolate one tastes like Yoohoo, its great!

Being in the new apartment, I'd like to make these changes and set these goals and start living a more healthy lifestyle... both nutritionally, mentally and spiritually. I will be sure to blog my progress with this.  I even got a new haircut to kick it all off! I got 4 inches cut off, so now my hair is the length of my collarbone.  I will post a picture or two once they are uploaded.
