March 2, 20179 yr Eating in between meals. Probably going to give alcohol up as well. Been doing that for years. It's a real challenge, especially when you get the late night munchies (which is every night!). Good luck
March 2, 20179 yr Been doing that for years. It's a real challenge, especially when you get the late night munchies (which is every night!). Good luck I'm trying that as well. If I don't snack I can lose weight. The snacks is what kills me.
March 2, 20179 yr A prayer of St. Ephraem of Syria, a fourth-century scholar and Doctor of the Church, that always seemed perfect for this season: "O Lord and Master of my life, take from me the spirit of sloth, despondency, lust of power, and idle talk; But grant rather the spirit of chastity, humility, patience, and love to thy servant. Yea, O Lord and King, grant me to see my own transgressions, and not to judge my brother; for blessed art Thou unto the ages of ages."
March 3, 20179 yr My favorite part of Lent kicks off tonight....Parish Fish Frys! I wish they stayed open later, can never get to any before they close.
