So Lent just started last Wednesday, but after five days of no snacks at work, spending no money on lunch at work and no juice at home I’m happy to say that I’ve lost 3 1/2 pounds as of this morning. So I was eating a lot of garbage, obviously. And based on my calculations I’ve saved about $60 between lunches and snacks at work that I haven’t bought. Of that $60, about $10 of it comes from snacks and goes toward the modest charity fund I’m raising during Lent.
