Giving up anything for Lent?

So, what (if anything) are you giving up for Lent?

 

Re: Giving up anything for Lent?

  • I am giving up being lazy! I am making a deal with myself to either walk or go to the gym at least 5 days a week!

    I am also giving up sodas! 

  • Nesting. :(

  • I was gonna do sodas but I've done that before. I think I'm going to give up pizza. I LOVE pizza and usually eat it about once a week. I think it'll be hard because we'll still order it for the kids but I won't be able to eat it!! ahhh
  • Fast food for sure. It seems to be the only time I can refrain, plus it tends to carry over afterward (once I break the addiction, I don't want it for a while).  I'm thinking maybe ice cream, too. I've been craving it a ton lately and it's really bad for me with my high cholesterol. 
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

    noooooo!!!! ;)

  • I'm giving up cursing. And I'm resolving to actually start training in earnest for the cap10k (we've already registered, so we are committed!).
    Dear Bump: You suck.
  • I've got two - not sure which I want to do. . . but dont think i can manage both at the same time! 
    1) giving up any food that is served in a paper bag. . . aka fast food. . . but my husband needed clarification on what places we could still go, so that is my logic.
    2)  alcohol.  beer is too simple . . . i'd just switch to wine or hard liquor, which wouldn't solve my gut problem.

  • We are giving up dessert and snacking between meals.

    Not a catholic but seriously considering this!! I have spent most of my time and energy on the nest instead of looking for a job!!

  • Hope.

    ?j/k! ?That's my joke every year on this board. :D ?

    On a serious note, every year I do try to give up being a judgmental b!tch, but sometimes that's really, really hard, lol! ?I will continue working on it this year, but I'll also give up sloth. ?I'm going to exercise 2-3 times per week.?
