Lenten Sacrifice

A blessed Ash Wednesday to everybody. For those in the carnival countries, the festivities would have climaxed and now you're into that solemn time. We were taught that this is the most solemn time in the christian calendar. It is also a custom to do something in sacrifice for these 40 days.

Most of my changes I put in my new year's resolutions, but there is one I thought of and that is doing some charitable work or deed at least once of week. I wasn't as pre-pared for Lent so I'll have to work on making that goal SMART. So by the weekend I can have it in operation.

I am doing much better on my calorie goal but it's still a struggle, it's not coming naturally. In one post I read last week, a member said she was going to a nutrionist and one of the things they had identified was making her able to maintain her calorie targets without a struggle.
