Decided I'm not giving up anything. Instead, I'm challenging myself for the next 40 days to get as toned and ripped as I possibly can! 40 days of hard core dedication to this!!! Yes, I know I have to take break days for the sake of my muscles...but on these days I at least want to get out and walk. My weekends are typically spent sitting around because no one wants to do anything, but I'm hoping I can encourage my husband to do something on the weekends besides sit in front of the TV!0

Unnecessary snacking... but I don't really do that much anyway, so I feel like I'm cheating a bit!0
-
Sugary stuff. Can't really say I'm giving up sugar completely as there is sugar in everything, but mostly white sugar.0
-
I've decided to give up extra sleep, get up an hour earlier in the mornings, and spend extra time in prayer and quiet reflection.
But I need to work on my sugar intake as well! That'll be my next hill to climb.0 -
I don't usually give anything up but I think I will follow the example of a previous poster and give up swearing. Evidently I swear so much it even bothers my teenage children!0
-
beer... gunna be a long 40 days0
-
Makeup... no lip gloss, eyeline, mascara, nothing. Just chapstick0

Steak /red meat ..... I could eat steak everyday .....sigh
I think we should keep this thread going for 40 days.0 -

Facebook on the computer. I'll still check it on my phone so I can see birthdays and get messages and know what's going on but not on the computer. That will limit the amount of time I spend and wow-can't wait to see what I can get done for my family!0

What else are people giving up for Lent????0 -
Light yogurts. I don't need all the artificial sweetener anyhow.0

I'm giving up alcohol totally! going to be rough, I have a glass or 2 or 3 of wine almost every night!!
I have also decided that my 3 year old is going to give up his pull-ups and wear his big boy unders!! (he's almost potty trained, we're just going to make him have to do it!!) And this is one thing we won't be going back to after easter!!!
My first priest told me not to give up things but to add them, so this is the first year I will not be heading his advice, but maybe I'll use the money I save on wine and give it to charity, that should keep him happy up there!!!0 -
