The Lenten Saga: Day 33

I definitely either need to purchase a new suit or have my old one tailored.

People are beginning to notice a lot of changes about me. The fact that I have slimmed down... a lot since last year. The weekend before I wore clothes that actually fit me, but this week I wore the suit I had since when I was much heavier. It is so loose on me, even the belt at the last loophole could not keep the pants up. So I will take the suit in this week to get it tailored. It is still a pretty nice suit, with PLENTY of fabric the tailor can play with. Buying a new suit right now is out of the question. I am saving my money for something much greater! And after that great day, then I will re-visit getting more clothes that fit. I want to proudly say that I lost a lot of weight the healthy way. I still ate regularly (several times a day everyday before Lent), and exercised constantly. Taking proper vitamins and watching what I eat. It was not until this year that I started my weight training... All of 2008 was dedicated to cardio. Now I mix the two and have not looked back since.

Holy week is right around the corner, starting with Palm Sunday. I have been asked to help make Palm Crosses, something I have not done in a VERY long time. I still remember how to do it, I just need a couple of palm leaves so I can practice a little bit before next Sunday, just to get it perfected! There is a place in the Containment Area that have these Palm Leaves. I will try to get some this week to practice with.
