Chocolate is a pretty common one. We have given up red meat a few times, pretty successfully.
We tried giving up eating out - that only worked up to a point, where it became more inconvenient than helpful.
Don't usually have to give up sex - I'm married, so I get that given up for me

A life without meat, chocolate, alcohol, and sex doesn't seem like something I'd want to do for a lifetime. I like a couple of those things rather a lot.Fullmetal660 wrote:I'm more of a new years resolution person than lent. Last year I gave up all forms of alcohol and sex. Couldn't think of one for this year. Thinking of giving up meat and chocolate next year, any thoughts?

I don't do it for my whole life, just for that one year, as a kind of test of self determination, I do it to see if I can resist.Wyldewode wrote:A life without meat, chocolate, alcohol, and sex doesn't seem like something I'd want to do for a lifetime.

Turn up the music and smile
Get carried away on the songs and stories of vanished times
