Goodbye Lent, Hello Carbs!

Easter was yesterday, so that means Lent is over and I can have CARBS again!

Well I didnt give up all carbs, I tried to keep it under 20 grams everyday.

I must admit that I cheated a little bit a couple times, its really easy to mess up your whole day with just one thing - like 1 banana was over my whole days worth of carbs.

But I think I did pretty good overall!

Anyway so now that its over I'm just being a maniac for carbs, but I dont want to gain back all of the 13lbs (whoop whoop Lent for Jesus and health :p) that I lost, obviously.

So I think I'm going to indulge in a little bit of carb love until wednesday and then start a new less strict little diet and work out plan.

Who's with me?

I haven't figured out all the details yet but when I do I'll probably post them on here, so I anyone cares they can join too, or give tips!

How was your lent if you did it? And how was your Easter?

P.S. If anyone is doing low carb right now and you find it hard to keep track of your daily intake, try the DailyCarb app, thats what I used and it is so useful! It keeps track of carbs, calories, water, etc. and it has a huge database of food to choose from or you can add your own!

Low Carb Lent

Do any of you do Lent?

The 40+ days between Fat Tuesday (starting on Ash Wednesday) and Easter?

I am not Catholic, but I have always loved the idea of Lent, giving up something to for 40 days and nights for Christ. Even if you aren't that religious, I think you would still like it if you love a good challenge. I've done it multiple times, but I think last year was the first year I did it all the way through without cheats. I did fried chicken, if you know me then you know what a big deal that is.

Now I sound like such a fatty.

But that will all change with Lent this year (It started 2 days ago)...

I'm giving up carbs.

Before someone turns into my Mom and tells me how bad that is for me I want you to know I'm not giving up all of them. Obviously I know you have to have some to live.

Anyway, I'm pretty excited. I think it is going to be really challenging, but I hope I can stick to it all the way! And I'll be skinny like woahhh

Just kidding, with my luck Ill be the one person in the world that gains weight with a low carb diet. 

But maybe not! Wish me luck!

Are you planning on doing anything for Lent?
