Hello and Happy Easter!
Today
it is Easter Sunday, the time families can get together and celebrate. I
went to my Stepdad's parents house for a gathering, and I got to
see my step Nieces and Nephews which are oh so cute!
As you may know, Lent began on 13th February. I gave up chocolate which was very hard for me as I adore it, but I have managed to not eat one bit of chocolate until today-which is when Lent is over. If you know me then you know I love love love chocolate, and giving up chocolate has caused me to change the things I eat on a daily basis.
Normally, I would have a chocolate shake in the mornings whereas I had to change it to strawberry shakes instead. When I get in from school I would snack on something chocolaty, but instead I would have bagels or a piece of fruit. As hard as it was giving up a delicacy, it has enlightened me that I can do something as long as I set my mind to it. In addition, I now eat more healthily. Although I did indeed eat alot of chocolate today as it is Easter, but now in my day to day life I will now substitute unhealthy snacks for fruit and only have the occasional chocolate.
I have to admit, today I did overdose on the chocolate as I hadn't had it in what felt like forever, but surprisingly it took me rather a long time to put the chocolate in my mouth. As weird as it sounds, I felt like I had come so far in not eating something I love, and just to give it up like that was quite sad. Not long after, I did eventually scoff down alot of chocolate and have demolished most of my eggs-oops. I do feel proud of myself that I managed to do lent and said no to something I adore, if you gave up something for lent and managed to not eat it for the period of time then you have all my congratulations.
This post was more or less just a little update of what I've been doing for the past 1 1/2 ish months, but next Sunday or sometime during the week I'll upload a beauty post to make up for this just being a chatty one.
Post Update
I am going to be changing the way I do the Weekly Wishlists. Before ,I would post one every 3rd Sunday, but as I am slowly running out of shops to do I will upload a Weekly Wishlist whenever-this may be once a month or one every 2 months, but I'm slowly running out of shops. Eventually I will have to end up repeating some shops, but stocks change and no items will be the same. I'll change the name of the Weekly Wishlists to Wishlists because they aren't weekly anymore.
Thank you for reading, and I hope you had/have a lovely Easter!
