Last month we had St. Patrick’s Day to worry about, and now we have Easter. I hope your Easter was as enjoyable and meaningful as mine. Once again however, it is hard to avoid eating too much. When family and friends gather together, it is impossible not to inundate your loved ones with food, especially the really delicious fattening kind.
My family is really great this way. Almost all of us are being careful with what we eat these days. All my family knows how much I am getting out of my Bender Ball, and a few of my cousins have even started regular exercise with their own Bender Balls. So whoever is hosting is careful to make a few of our favorite, traditional foods, and is careful to keep the amount of high-calorie, unnecessary snacks, desserts and side dishes to a minimum.
And after dinner we usually go for a long walk, all of us together, which is a family tradition that I really love.
I hope you had a great, low calorie, meaningful and joyous Easter.
