Lenten Fasting: Roll Call for Af Am Catholics or Anglican/Episcopalians

[RedefinedDiva]

I am giving up all drinks besides PLAIN WATER. That includes coffee, tea, juice, Kool-Aid, punch, alcohol, soft drinks, etc. I hardly drink enough water because I am addicted to flavor. I will drink almost anything before I drink water. I HATE WATER!! But, I need to do this to cleanse myself. Therefore, that's the plan. Water, water, water....

I also gave up eating out. Since I am a broke student, I don't have money to burn, YET I am at the coffeeshop EVERY day, Popeyes, Chilis, etc. Aside from wasting money, my waistline is paying for it. Therefore, only healthy, home prepared meals for me.

Lastly, I am gviving up laziness. I am going to forgo my daily two hour nap after class and get back to working out!

After 40 days and nights of Tae Bo, Yoga Booty Ballet, healthy meals, and some good, clean, crisp water, I will be back in the game!!

Same thing for 2007.

I'm Catholic and I gave up sugar and bread. Man I'm hungry...

I'm Catholic, though not strictly practicing. I gave up alchohol. I feel so good not drinking.
