I don't normally give up anything but this year, I decided to give up sweets for Lent. What did you give up?

    Neither do I. I'm giving up negativity/negative thinking, but almost failed yesterday due to a less-than-ideal medical report.

    Its easy to get caught up in negative merry go round... I hope everything is ok and it is something that you can work toward changing

    Thanks! I'm okay and look forward to allowing my Higher Power to help change my life through positivity.

    Pretty much this for me too. If you want to be accountability buddies, don't hesitate to ask!

    Nothing now that I'm no longer a Catholic. I sacrifice every paycheck giving money to the government.

    Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I wanted to give up all social networking, but MFP keeps me sane and I need to log my food B)

    That's awesome, I can't imagine giving up all my social stuff... my job is really boring at times.

    I almost didn't give anything up either, but realized that, for various reasons, this is the perfect season of life to practice staying away from negativity.

    I don't give up anything, I add in things such as more volunteer work, performing random acts of kindness, etc.

    I am trying to be nicer for lent. So I guess in a way, I'm giving up being mean.
    Today I donated money to a charity .
    Yesterday I didn't smack the woman who bumped my Gucci bag with her cart in the grocery store.
    That's all I've got so far.
