Easter Indulgences

I’ve never been called fat. In fact, I’ve usually been told I’m skinny, or even on a rare occasion, too skinny. But I just want to share that I am still affected by what I eat. This is a picture from Easter last year and one from this year for comparision. I had been eating my favorite candy – Reese’s peanut butter eggs. And yes, I even ate an entire package of 8 eggs in ONE day! While I understand that a lot of you are shaking your heads right now and saying I still wasn’t fat, had I continued eating like I was, can you imagine what my Easter picture THIS year would look like?! It does take WORK to live healthy, to choose to do something active when you could just watch a movie, to say no to another helping of food or no to that high fat, high sugar dessert because you’ve already had a treat this week. So make a COMMITMENT today to WORK on your healthy lifestyle! I know I’m going to be carefully watching what I eat this week to counter the HUGE Easter dinner I had with family yesterday!
