Day 1



It's Day 1.

Breakfast is going to be the hardest. Have you ever realized how breakfast is based on sugar? Yikes. Even my healthy granola has sugar on it. Booo.

Anyhow--just a note to my friends that I publicly pressured to join me.

None of your vices today. Or for the next 6 weeks.

BWWWWAAAAAAAAHHHHAAAAHHHAAA

Lent with me




Remember last year when I was Vegetarian for Lent? I did that because my end goal was to change my diet permenantly and make it to where I was eating meat only a few times a week. And it worked. It really made me change my thinking.

So what do I want to change in my diet now? Sugar. Refined sugar.

There is NO WAY I could go weeks without sweets. But I could go without refined sugars. I want to replace those with more natural alternatives that don't spike your blood sugars like they do.

So no sugar, no brown sugar, no high fructose corn syrup and no other things of the sort.

So on to alterntatives. Stevia, blue agavae and whatever else I can eat. I will be doing some research and I'll let you know.

So i challenged my group of buddies to join with me in Lent. If you know them you should ask them what they are giving up.

Sheri Denton, Marlo Lundell, Ashley Rogers, Molly Decrow, Cami Wright, Cicily Bowles, Kizzy Karas, Lindsay Jones (although technically she wasn't there that night)

So I challenge any of you---what is it that you want to change about your diet? Try it with me for Lent.

Thing is. Today is Fat Tuesday. The last day you can indulge and then tomorrow.

Nothing. Nada. Zip.

Let's do this.
