getting fit for lent

It's Friday and I think we all deserve a drink! I definitely need one.This has seriously been the longest week ever. Lucky for me, I get to spend the entire weekend with my crew. The whole crew.

Now for some lent updates. First of all I've got to tell you I never realized until Wednesday how flipping hard it was to not eat meat. Like, impossible. I felt like I starved myself all day long. Really? I really need to branch out of my foods! Obviously. 

Anyway, so the get fit for lent is only heading into day 3 so I don't really have much to say. I can show you my groceries for the week and some staples I use/will be using during lent! As the weeks go by I'll post healthy recipes I like, healthy food that tastes super amazing, and how I am dedicating all of this to Him! I mean, that is the point of it all right? 

Here my groceries from this week. Oh, and keep in mind...I'm on a tight budget so I can't get too crazy.  I keep it simple, yo.

Also keep in mind this was for like three days, and I already had sandwich thins and turkey at home.

For breakfast:

I usually have a Greek yogurt with granola or plain. Fast + Easy = Molly Style. I also like to eat a rice cake with pb and a sliced banana on top. Yummmmy. I tried overnight oats a few weeks back and totally failed. I will try again and see if I can get it taste like something better than cardboard.

For a snack:

I rock the almonds and usually a banana. Most of the time I am starving 10 seconds later so...looks like I need to think of some more :)

For lunch:

My lunch usually consists of a sandwich {turkey} plus a veggie and fruit. When I have them, I add a cheese stick to the mix too! By the way, check out this website for some AWESOME and healthy lunch ideas. I found this last night and am obsessed. You bet they hooked me on their containers. I'm too easy.

For dinner:

Well it's always a mystery. Lately I just have skipped it. Bad bad and more bad. That is one thing I hope to improve on during this time, making wholesome, healthy, and delicious dinners.

I cut my diet coke down to half a can a day {Because seriously let's get real...I can't just cold turkey give it up while using it to get me through the day with 10 and unders}

I heard vitamins are where it's at so I picked up these bad boys. I can't lie, I want to eat the entire container they are so darn good! I will let you know how I think they are helping/not helping. I am feeling more energetic but that could also be from eating healthier foods too.

So anyway, the point is I like to keep it simple and do what is easiest and works best for me. When I have my own place and own kitchen I know this will be way easier and I will be whipping up all sorts of concoctions. I like to think so, that is.

So join my best Lindsey & I through these 40 days of dedicating our health to God and feeling great! If y'all want we can always do a link up so we can motivate each other.

Either way HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!

Cheers. Or chugs. Whichever.
