Lent and Weight Loss (Katie)

Well, I'm back as well. I'm writing this email with my head hung in shame. It's pretty sad when you take great pride in just maintaining your fat ass weight. But that's all I have to take pride in at the moment. "I'm maintaining!" That's like the meth-head "maintaining" their current addiction. Way to go!

But Ash Wednesday is my hope. It's the best time of the year and like a good Catholic I will feel shame for not committing to do something to better myself and/or others. For you C&E Catholics out there, it's time to dust off your prayer book. Maybe a few of those will give us all some motivation.

My Lenton Prayer:

Hail Mary, full of Grace, the fat is upon me. Blessed art thou over eaters who love bread and cheese. And blessed is the fruit in my Dairy Queen blizzard. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us eaters and now at the hour of the Chinese Buffett.

I'm off to dig out my Rosary beads.

Katie
