    Bread, pasta and cable? What's left? LOL

    Nothing. I gave up beer for 14 days last summer and drank more wine to compensate - giving up food doesn't help me much!

    I do not normally give up anything for lent... however this year I am thinking of giving up alcohol. I do love a nice glass of wine.
    I am still deciding I have a few more days....

    Being that I already cut so much of the "good stuff" from my daily diet, I'm uncertain. I was thinking of giving up all sweets but to be honest, sticking with 1,200 calories per day doesn't allow for a whole lot of that to begin with. I think I may do something non-food related this Lent. Maybe sacrifice needless shopping or something like that? Trips to Target? Ugh, that would be PAINFUL! Lol! Maybe episodes of The Real Housewives and VanDerPump Rules? The options are endless!

    Oh, the joys of being protestant. I'm not giving up ANY of the foods.

    Cokes which I already did that 2 yrs ago. Nothin really. Everything in moderation is key for me. I can't give up the food I love. But I am trying to cut out MORE processed stuff.. And learn to read the ingredients better.

    I'll be giving up pop :( I just have about one per day, but I used to live on it and I've been having it more than usual lately. I need to break the habit before it gets really out of hand.
