So the devil is here tempting you. What has he in his hand?

[Litluts]

Whatever it is, you better eat it quick, as it's the last you'll see of it for 40 days and 40 nights.

What are you giving up for Lent?

[AnneLovesGilbert]

Cambazola has Pinot noir

[AnneLovesGilbert]

*and!

[ShirleyPhallus]

Thinking about alcohol

Anyone done this?

[Hushnownobodycares]

Nothing.

Ex church goer and been conned into giving up enough of life's pleasures to cover a lifetime's worth of Lents.

[nrpmum]

Nothing here too, don't believe in that bollacks

[scaryteacher]

Ironing.

I might try to give up chocolate, but they sell such lovely little Easter eggs loose here in Belgium, and I've just bought a shed load of chocolate back from Vienna.....

[BaronessBomburst]

Nothing, but my work colleagues and several friends have all commented that I have no resistance to cheese.

[Crunchymum]

Rioja and Kettle Chips.

[Litluts]

Heathens.

[UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername]

Chocolate. Nothing to do with Lent though, I'm an atheist; it's because I'm on a LCHF diet.

[Atalune]

Crisps.

[edwinbear]

Alcohol - do it most years and always feel great for it.

9 yr old DS is giving up school apparently and DD (7) is giving up the IPad.....

[bellinisurge]

Class A drugs and scuba diving.

[BlueMerchant]

Over-thinking

[Nesssie]

Takeaways/buying lunch out. Going to try and make health pack lunches and save money.

[bellinisurge]

I figured I could offer my dismay at Brexit up to Jesus to cover it. I'm a Catholic- we fudge it after a bit .

[FriarTuck]

Calories. I'm counting from tomorrow.

[TemporaryPermanent]

Restraint and maturity. Just messaged another hot looking guy off TopShags.com* because I feel like some attention.

*name changed to protect my blushes

[Stabbitha]

Spending money

[Mydollymolly]

Nothing.
I did ask my boss if I could give up work for 40 days of lent. His answer wasn't very Christian like I must say.

[WhatisFreddoingnow]

Pray - An hour of Adoration every week.
Fast - Chocolate and properly fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday unlike last year's brunch fiasco
Charity - Make a point of doing some kind of good deed for someone somewhere everyday

Woooo! Love Easter.

[Prymatt]

Instead of giving up i'm going to try to do something positive, 30 min exercise everyday and put aside for charity or de-clutter an item everyday.

[flitwit99]

A jar of Nutella and a teaspoon

[CigarsofthePharoahs]

Biscuits. In particular chocolate malted milks or custard creams.
Actually I should probably just say all high gi carbohydrates. I'm a sugar fiend.
Thankfully not being Roman Catholic I can gorge without the guilt.

[bellinisurge]

@CigarsofthePharoahs Maybe I like the misery . Gratuitous Father Ted quote there.
Which reminds me that dh and I need to watch the Father Ted Lenten Classic- "cigarettes , alcohol and roller blading ". I encourage everyone to seek that episode out.
