My Fitness Pal contains nutrition facts for over 450,000 foods and I can log my exercise endeavors into a journal.
As Ash Wednesday is the first day of the Lenten season ... the season of preparation for the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday ... it seems appropriate to fast at this time.
Watch my progress on the counter below!
