Lean For Lent
By Bernadette A. Moyer
Last Wednesday we started the Lenten season with Ash Wednesday and our “lean for lent” program. We are lowering our carbs and adding more to our exercise routines. The goal for this 6-week program is to lose 10 pounds and forgo bad attitudes and negativity. Kindness counts! It is about mind, body and soul and overall wellness.
Participants were encouraged to weigh themselves the first Friday and every week on Friday thereafter.
So how are we doing? Feel free to message me with your progress or e-mail me at bmoyer37@aol.com

Today’s tip – DRINK MORE WATER! Your stomach only knows FULL and EMPTY and not necessarily what is filling it up!
It is not too late to join and your comments and sharing is encouraged. Next week? Here we come …
