What did you give up for Lent and Daily Check in.
I have given up candy and desserts for Lent. Today is already a hard one as I love, love, love Lifesavers Orange Mint candies. I walked out of church this morning and reached for one
 Didn't eat it, didn't even open it, threw it out the car window. Need this post to keep myself on the up and up and not cheat. Will you, won't you join me if you have given up something for Lent?

RE: What did you give up for Lent and Daily Check in.
I'd love to join you, Bee, but I haven't given up anything for Lent. Having said that, maybe I can offer support as you give up candy and desserts. I've been very careful with my diet for 3 weeks now, and candy/desserts are on the no-no list, except maybe a little treat once a week.

RE: What did you give up for Lent and Daily Check in.
Thanks Ro
 I even went to Mass and got ashes this morning before work. Shamefully I can't remember the last time I went and sat through the Mass before getting ashes, usually ran in as the line was going up and did it at 8:00 in the evening so no one would see the ashes on my forehead. It really felt good to go before work I was a bit late but I figured my HP would take care of me getting to work late. She believed she could so she did....

Day 2 of Lenten Season. These babies are calling my name "Come on Donna, just one." Well they are not gonna get me to eat them.
I probably should have given up something easier. I can't believe how addicted I am to these damn life savers, but they are sooooo good. You should try them, they are Orange Mint and in my honest opinion, they are the best tasting of all life savers.
