I am "giving up" a person with whom I have had a lot of conflict. I will try to be friends again.
I am giving up ALL deep fried food.

    I'm giving up the fat in my stomach. Lent can HAVE it!

    Complaining and judging others.

    I am failing miserably! But, I think the object is the trying and being aware.

    It is impossible to watch American Idol while doing this, by the by.:tongue:

    NEGATIVITY!!!
    Boy do I need it- I've been doing so much better, but man alive, for awhile there, I was Ms. Negative Nellie!!

    P.S. when exactly does Lent start?

    Mardi Gras is "Fat Tuesday" a party before Lent starts. The only way I can keep track of when it starts is that it is the day after Mardi Gras.

    I'm giving up this poor attitude I have had for years of my body. I have decided that life and my body is a precious gift from God. How ungrateful I have been by overeating, no exercise, and poor nutritional eating. I'm sure Jesus never treated his body the way I have.
    (They say that it takes forty days to break a habit...Lent is 40 days......Unfortunately, it's followed by chocolate bunnies and peanut butter eggs)
