Today is Fat Tuesday. Did you know that Mardi Gras actually means “Fat Tuesday” which is the day before Ash Wednesday and indicates the start of Lent – a 40 day period of fasting and abstinence for Christians before Easter.
Fat Tuesday is therefore typically a day to indulge in excess sweets so no doubt many of you will likely gain some weight as you overindulge and satisfy that sweet-tooth on this special day of feasting and indulgence.
