Antithesis of a hedonist

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ascetic

(Other definitions for ascetic that I've seen before include "One practising self-denial as a discipline" , "One practises self-denial as a spiritual discipline" , "Severely self-disciplined" , "Austere, Spartan" , "Severe self-disciplinarian" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
