I used to drink 7+ cans of coke a day but gave it up overnight. Some people have problems with the caffeine, I didn't!

Also not doing lent but funny story!
Last year my sister gave up chocolate for lent. We were at my aunt's house for a party and she had one of those chocolate fountains but it was white chocolate. My sister ate it cause she forgot it was chocolate because of the color.

white chocolate isn't chocolate, it's confectionary

I totally forgot Lent was around the corner and coincidentally gave up meat and beer. I went veg. about a month ago and quit drinking beer about 2 weeks ago. I blacked out and hit my head on something, warranting a scary clinic trip in the morning with no real information to give the doctor. So no more beer for a while.

Really though all Lent means to me is I will have to spend 40 days explaining to my idiot right wing christian coworkers why they are stupid for eating fish instead of meat on fridays.

Maybe you have low blood pressure like me. I used to get proper faint all the time and they thought it was down to that. My aim for this year is to put a bit of weight on. I did manage a bit over Christmas because I was home a lot but I struggle to actually feed myself in uni as I am too exhausted all the time from all this engineering bullshit.

My friends are actually getting together to feed me up. NB: Friends do not live in a gingerbread house.

In other news I have given up scratching like a bastard also. This should be quite easy though because my skin is ace at the moment.

I might give up soda for it because I need to give up soda but I'll probably revert to drinking shit like coffee again for awhile, since my schedule is too fucked up right now to just give up caffeine all at once.

If you plan to give up caffeine then you can't have Tea, Coffee, Cocoa, and some shampoos and soaps.

I gave up Ice Cream, I might end up being a type 2 diabetic in the future.

A tool is a tool regardless. I mean if you suck, you suck, and not even the most perfect tool could save you. And if your damn good then even with the worst tool ever conceived you could chug out some high quality shit.

Yeah, I want to give up caffeine, but it would have to be a gradual thing unless I waited until april to start.

I use to be addicted to soda just for the carbonation. Screw caffeine, I just wanted that kick in the mouth that only carbonation can give you. but I gave it up pretty much overnight. Never have done anything for Lent. I don't think I'll give up my addictions because they're pretty minor, like watching some TV and procrastinating and not like hooked on drugs. But I woke up this morning and feel the best I've ever felt so maybe I'll try to improve myself.

I'm gonna try giving up skipping class, I do it a little too often for my liking

....Ha! Did you forget already? In my world, the color red doesn't exist. These must be... my tears. Ever since I woke up from my coma... ...I think I've been waiting for this very moment. You'd do well to remember this, Maya. The only time a lawyer can cry is when it's all over.

i looked this up yesterday and good white chocolate is made with cocoa butter so it depends on what you consider chocolate to be

arguing semantics with god is pretty petty though, she lost the bet, suck it up

hey here's a joke: lent can get bent. ^-^

Thats a stupid thing to give up, only idiots who think they can go pro on guitar hero or halo tournaments do that sort of shit.
