Have been going overboard on chocolate until I feel quite ill - just because I'm giving it up for Lent! I'm also giving up wheat and refined sugar; glad that I'm starting my new regime tomorrow as I feel good and ready!

    I am going to "try" to give up coffee AGAIN. LOL!

    But there is a difference, my routine with coffee is, wake up, drink 3 cups, which takes 3 hours, then I eat breakfast at 9am. Which pushes all my other daily activities and exercises back. And I really dont like it that way! But I like my coffee!

    So hopefully, if I wake up, and eat soon after, I can get my exercise in faster and be done for the day!

    Good luck to us!

    I am planning on giving up meat for the entire time. I am a little concerned becuase when I have done this before I tend to compensate with pasta, eggs and/or cheese. I want to go more towards veggies and beans this time.

    I read online where bishops are encouraging people to give up their iPod for Lent. Talk about a sacrifice!!
