Lent

Giving up soda too! I did it for a few months before the holidays. I definitely lost a little weight so that's good too. Today at work we were like it's Fat Tuesday eat as much as you want! Tomorrow not so much.

Oh I'm enjoying my last diet coke right now... Oh I will miss you, old friend...

---

Suck it down...3 mins to go!!!

I am giving up all my junk food. oh, how i will miss it........

I am not giving up anything
Instead I am going to get back into the routine of going to church every Sunday ( i was good all year until December, with the wedding planning I let it slide which is TERRIBLE )
I am going to fast on Fridays - which means no meat and no eating between meals - only three meals per day and only drinking water- i never eat meat on Fridays anyway
I am going to do the rosary once a week, preferably on a Friday
I am going to try to be more sympathetic to the people around me and not be so selfish

Wow I have to think about this one.
when does lent start again? I am methodist, but never made it 40 days of giving up something-

I'm a terrible Catholic (either that or I have no will power)... I'm not giving anything up.

BUT, I will not eat meat on Fridays and I will go get my ashes today (I tried to go this morning but the guy wouldn't let me into the church with my Dunkin Donuts tea )

you don't have to give something up cpmpletely. I was learning in RCIA that even 'limiting' yourself from something for a certain amount of time or whatever can be a sacrifice...or giving up time to do something charitable....also you can make your lent sacrifice by abstaining from bad habits like having a sharp tongue, being rude, being judgemental. etc.
