Giving up chocolate for Lent Club !

I must be quite mad, but Lent begins on Wednesday and I'm planning to give up chocolate (incl. any chocolate related foodstuffs) for the duration - does anyone fancy joining me ? I eat chocolate every day and love it dearly, so I look on it as a test of willpower,plus it might be good for me !! Also,as a very lapsed Catholic I think there is a bit of the self-denial thing going on !
Any suggestions for choc free snacks ?
Thought about giving up coffee too (I have a passion for real coffee made in my little espresso pot- twice daily) but I think that'd be going a bit too far !

In a funny kind of way,I'm a bit sorry that it is (perhaps lack of chocolate has affected my brain ?!) but it is nice to be able to have a bag of Maltesers or some Galaxy again !
