Ash Wednesday

So… for Ash Wednesday I did good at one thing… I didn’t eat meat.

I started out my day with PIYO; Define: Upper Body.  I found myself modifying it, not following Michelle, just modifying it to make it a little more challenging and to add more stretching.  It wan’t giving me what I wanted for my upper body.

Then came my eating… BAD!  yes, I was good about not eating meat but I was unable to fast for a meal like we are supposed to and I ate TWO ice cream sandwiches.  I also made grilled cheese sandwiches out of sourdough and two types of cheese.  So, I was up in carb heaven.  Bad Loke!

And…I have been bad about doing my mile walk for three days straight.

Alright…I am putting my shoes back on and I am going for my mile walk now.

Also…I have figured out what I am giving up for lent… ice cream.  I am also going to try very hard to stay away from bread, rice, and pasta.  Those are my downfalls.  The other things I need to stay away from are cookies and cakes.  I am not a big candy fan but I love chocolate.

Alright…I jut realized what I said above… I am going to do paleo for lent!  I am going to see how that plus my exercise program will benefit me.  Since I am going to cut out the carbs I might as well go paleo.  Can’t bullshit the bullshitter!  My body needs this, and my spirit needs this too.  I need to be healthy and I am going to enjoy my Catholicism at the same time.

Heading out to walk… chat with you soon.

Aloha…Loke
