I'm giving up driving to work. I have a vanpool I can ride but I have to get up earlier and get home later, plus it's not as comfortable as my vehicle. So I usually don't ride it. But I save about 3 gallons of gas and wear and tear on the car every time I ride the vanpool, so I need to do it. So I'm going to ride the van and give up my personal ride.
Exercise.
Sweets, including, ice cream, cookies, cakes, pies, candy, pastries, pop cycles... basically processed sugar.
For me, it’s really hard, I do enjoy my desserts and snacks. Bonus, I’ll drop a few pounds too.

Stress...
I have made a lot of lifestyle changes over the last year. For lent I will fast and focus on penance.
sleep
Self denial.
Just kidding.
Even as a Baptist, I try to make sure I give up something.
I will fast one day of the week (have to be careful doing that, Type II) and I give up sodas, no more Coke Zero for a while for Pap.
Seriously I don't know. Should give up something, but I've already given up everything but sex, drugs, booze and gambling. My life is so clean I'm running out of things to sacrifice.
I might suggest lettuce, and I’m not just saying plain lettuce, I’m talk’n about making it a real sacrifice, and including, iceberg, romain, and loose leaf. I can’t imagine the weight it will add to your burden, but someone has to lead the way...Quote:

I've set a target date of April 22.
Funny enough I really like salads. Maybe I could work up to it and start with liver. I hate liver. I could give that up this year and next year maybe give up turnips or beets or something.Quote:
