What Are You Giving Up For Lent?

Lent

Ash Wednesday approaches...what will you give up?

If I were religious I guess it would be sweets....which I think I'll do anyway.

you can not be serious

EPIC FAIL


im a rebel, nothing

I always wanted to fast for lent, but never did, I don't think I have the willpower to do more than 3-5 days! it's really tough!

The good news is it's Fat Tuesday

so drink up & party tonight everybody!

I'm not giving anything up at all...in fact...I'm going to aquire some more bad habits just cos I can. Nothing illegal....just wicked! ;D

Yipes! I completely forgot!

(haven't been to Mass in years, but that's another story in and of itself...)

Lemmie think...

I shall abstain from....sugary foods.

Judaism.

Also raw tomatoes and cheese.

I'm giving up drugs and cig's

PS I do neither

I don't usually give up anything for lent. But this year it would be good for me to give up sugar. I eat way too much of that.

Too much sugar is like being too rich:
It can't happen

All forms of Organized Religion...

Oh yeah, and women too!!!

I gave up my sanity a while ago....so i guess that was enough of a sacrifice.

I had a HUGE bowl of cake & ice cream last night as a final hurrah....gonna see how long I can hold out. No Willie Wonka movie for me for 40 days!

Just remember, eat right, exercise, die anyway....

It's the one Universal Constant... None of us are getting out of this Mother Frakker alive!

I'm not religious, I was raised Catholic, but never tried to give anything up for lent. I did, however, start a diet today. Not because of Lent but because of all the bikinis in the stores now.....crunches tonight and no dinner Being a woman sucks!

. I forgot too.

It really helps the soul, sacrafice does and makes the soul appretiate more.

One time I gave up video games and I got so much done. it was amazing. Another time I fasted alot and it made me appretiate food on a different level.

It does alot for my soul.

God bless you OP.
