Lent, what if anything are you giving up?

I gave up chocolate last year and when I had it after 47 days I'd gone off it. I've since gone back on it, but don't want that happening again! Will have to think of somethig else this year. Might give biscuits a go instead.

Nothing for me, I’m not particularly religious.

No I'm with all the abstainers ...so nothing

I will give the "give up worrying" a go too! But I'm worried I won't be able to stop worrying....😒

No. It's irrelevant to me as I'm not a Christian and I already eat fairly healthily. I'm not going to give up my habit of a couple of squares of dark chocolate two or three times a week.

I'll join all the worriers if I may....it would be wonderful to have no worries!
I'll try hard to give up night time nibbles/wine, no snacking after evening meal.
I think I'll have to go to bed at 7 pm.🤣

Nope. I fail to see why I should make life even harder for myself.

I sometimes give up something during Lent. Often chocolate but I’ve had a (failed) go at giving up cursing.
It’s a small attempt at discipline rather than faith
I feel I’ve had enough challenges since this time last year. I aim to look after myself

That’s a good plan, Fanny. As well as giving up worrying, I think I’ll give up migraines, too.

A good plan LRavenscroft - I should take up your idea

Fanny I would love to give up worrying too. If only.

Giving up Chocolate, cakes and biscuits plus spending time on the C of E Lent readings Dust and Glory.

Today I’d quite happily give up my H 😡

I feel no compulsion to give up anything. Why should I? Lent is irrelevant to me - and most people I should think. Is it about religion or tradition? (No New Year resolutions here, either.)

Carbohydrates.

I am going to try to give up being lazy. - my one big indulgence. Seriously, with the better weather I am trying to get out walking each and everyday to see the beautiful spring arriving.

Today began with delicious pancakes, syrup, and berries- will end with chocolate. Tomorrow, forward to Easter, no sugar or chocolate.

My husband gave up alcohol. He selects a big challenge.

Oh if only I could give up worrying!!!

Sounds like a great plan gmb

I'm going to give up giving up

For the right price i will give up anything.
Just ask my X.

Oh Fanny, I'll join you, too, if I may.

I, also, need to give up procrastinating. (- and yet, here I am on GN! )

I’m giving up my aspiration to date David Gandy.
In reality, as I don’t have a sweet tooth, I’ll give up my Friday night in the pub packet of cheese and onion.

FC - I’m with you

Oh Fanny I'm with you on that one. I'm going to try that.
