Lent / New Years

Patch

Has anybody given anything up, or started something new, for Lent this year? 

I gave up sugary drinks and having always been a 'milk and two' person, the first couple of days were difficult, but I'm getting used to it :).

I don't want this to be exclusively religious so maybe if people have New Years resolutions they would be interesting too!

  • My new Year's resolution was to finally get some answers re. my health and in January I received my HFA diagnosis so, I guess, job done! I have the rest of the year to work out how to apply this new knowledge and make it a positive thing that works FOR me rather than against me. 

    My next resolution is to start the ECDL course so that, hopefully, I'll have the computer skills I need for whatever i choose my next step to be. (Finish my studies or apply the skills to a new job.) 

    I've never observed Lent before but I have been considering giving up coffee for good, does that count? (Or are you just supposed to give something up for the period of Lent itself?)
