Between now and April 12? Easy...
I'm not Catholic either unless we are referring to the Latin meaning of the word being the Universal church. :)
I'll play too, how about caffeine? I started this already 2 weeks ago due to blood pressure. I already went through the withdraws and headache that lasted 2 days. I was going to say alcohol but you never know the situation you may be in in the next few months. ;) I haven't had any since VD anyway.

Hmm, I'm gonna have to go get one of them White Chocolate Macadamia nut cookies now.
An Tiffers, I have Lutheran relatives, they do lent as well. I've heard that Lutherans are just like Catholics, only half the guilt.

Girl, I've given up peanut butter and cheese for the past 8 weeks! That's like a lent "give up" right? As soon as my show is done I'm putting myself into a peanut butter coma....

I haven't had caffeine since Feb. 5 so I'm sure I'll do well. :) I switched to decaff green tea and herbal teas. Tazo makes an awesome tasting green tea called Lotus.

Good for you! I can't even imagine giving up caffeine. I've gotten down to two small cups of coffee a day before, but that's as low as I can go.

My problem is that I don't need caffeine so when I do have it it effects me like crack. I won't sleep for a long period of time either, lol.

nope...it's all about giving up stuff.
however, giving up stuff that you'd normally not do anyway...well, that's just an automatic win! play the odds, my friend!
