Low Carb, LENT, and 8 pounds LESS :)

Ok, its that time of year again... They fatten us up on Mardi Gras, only to let us suffer for the next 40 days until Easter rolls around and the smell of chocolate bunnies permeates the room...

I always figured that since I was adhering to a low carb diet already, thus giving up foods that meant something to me.. (You know like the chocolate,  soft drinks, etc.)

I will have to deliberate on this notion. In the meantime.. here is my carb/ caloric intake for the day.

Breakfast = 1/2 banana (50 calories, 8 carbs), blackberries (5 carbs, 18 calories), blueberries (2 carbs, 20 calories)

For a late lunch, I at a Wendy's Spicy Chicken Salad (25 carbs, 430 calories) with two packs of Ranch Dressing (4 carbs)

538 calories and 44 carbs.

Good News is I lost a total of 8 pounds in five weeks :))

I had a Body Pump (60-minute weightlifting class )at Anytime Fitness tonight :)
