So what are you doing for Lent?

I'm giving up my beloved Coke.
Not sure yet. Last year I found out that Lent was a man made law by the Catholics. I was brought up catholic but don't consider myself one anymore...last year I didn't give up anything and I just didn't feel right. I don't think it hurts to do some self sacrifice to honor Jesus no matter who you are.Not sure...I could give up super chewy food.  Hmmm...I guess that doesn't really count due to the jaw-huh? 

 
I've given up choc. in the past...that is probably what I'll do. 
 
[QUOTE=SnowOwl]Jas - no Coke?  Maybe if more here gave up a tiny bit of pride and extended their hand instead of showing their ignorance...As a catholic girl who got married in the Anglican Church 43 years ago, I tell my DH that lent still applies to me and that it goes for months... I give up Sex!
