So alot of my MFP's have been asking... 'what are you giving up for lent?' Chocolate? Booze? Bread?
I have always tried to give something up for Lent food-wise.. but perhaps it doesn't have to be about giving up a treat. Everyone knows that a little treat now and again is better than depriving yourself of something to the point where after six weeks of Lent you might have a total splurge.
So, for Lent, I am giving up on giving up! I will persevere, I will keep up my motivation. I will eat as healthily as I can but not give up if I have a 'bad day' food-wise, I will not give up on exercise if I miss a day's workout. I will not give up on me!!
Who's with me?

I'm with you. Even tho I have 'given up' Beer for lent. In all honesty i have only had two nites of beer this year so its no great sacrifice. Just an extra push not to have those liquid calories.

I also don't do lent, but that was my new year's resolution, to NOT give up. i have to say I've been fairly motivated this year too, certainly more than last year.0
