Low Carb Archive - Giving It Up - Challenge

Hi Everyone,

Next Wednesday, March 5th is Ash Wednesday, the start of 40 days and 40 nights of giving up something for Lent.

I thought this would be a great Challenge for us and it couldn't have come at a better time, I am SOOO out of control.

Anyway, if you'd like to join me in giving up something please jump in.

1. I am going to give up snacking at night and
2. I am going to measure all that I put in my body

God Bless !!

1. I am giving up weighing myself every darn day.
2. Absolutely no candy or chips will pass these lips!
3. I will not listen to village gossip, no matter how interesting!

1. I am giving up diet pop.
It will be hard but I need to prove to myself that it can be done!

Can I give up SHDH?

I am with Dyan--SHDH--givng him up!

I gotta think this one through--diet pepsi seems undoable at this point--UM.......:shrug: I gotta think this one through--I'll get back to ya!!



Miss:devil:

I am going to give up bashing myself. I can't believe how bad I talk about myself! If someone else did that, they would be feeling some pain:lol:

Start 02/03 237
current: 225
mini goal 215 by 3/31
Goal 150ish

I will give up;
Cheating .. after all the one I am fooling is myself :)
Sitting on the couch for long periods of time .. doing nothing!

Hmmmm, this comes just in time to prepare for shorts season. I'm giving up my primetime sitcoms in order to start going to the gym again. Also, no more cheating on my low-carb plan. Except my indulge breakfast I have on Saturdays. That keeps me on track all week. :s:

I will give up chocolate for 40 days. 40 nights, too. Oh man, I dunno if I can do this or not. There's not much else to give up. I kicked that stinkin' 34 year cigarette habit a year and a half ago, gave up caffeine a couple of months ago... yep, chocolate is the only thing left that I have absolutely no control over. I guess it's chocolate. *still wondering if I'll actually post this. Can I really give up chocolate for that long???* Yes, I can.

I will give up being off plan for 40 days!! (I like that one it should really get some fat moving!!!)

I will give up after work tv, and use that time for house cleaning. :)

This is a great idea, Leens!

For Lent this year, I will also give up eating late, so....


No eating after 8:00 pm.
No more chocolate candy.

Good luck everyone!

I'm giving up pizza. It's my one major cheat. Monday night pizza with DH.

Its only a few day's away, Don't Forget !!

I will give up diet hopping. I made up my mind to stick to a lower carb WW and that's what I'm agonna do by jimminy!

i gave up cooking for lent a number of years ago, and kept it going! oh sorry. that wasn't what you meant.

instead of food, i'm going to work on my patience with myself and others. a major effort.

I am going to give up:

1. having Friday evening cocktails with DH. I will drink water
instead!!!
2. sugar - I am already doing pretty well on this but this will help
get that last little bit GONE!!!!


:)

Hmmmm....Dare I say.....Diet pepsi???? Sheesh--that will be tough since I have like two cases in the basement!!

Alos I am giving up chips and candy too--I rarely eat them anymore--but once I do it is over!!

I pray I can do this--starts when?? Wednesday??

Mis
