You should give up smoking anyway. Doing it for Lent implies that you're going to start up again once it's over.

As for me, I don't know. I'm not really religious, but maybe I'll give up something.

well thats why im doing it for lent. if i do it for lent, i know i'll be able to quit for 40 days, and by then i'm sure i won't need them anymore, so i will have quit for good. but i don't know yet if thats what i'm gonna do

I fast because I'm over 17 years old and the Church requires I do so on Ash wensday and every friday of lent. It also requires I give up something to "draw closer to God". Though I do it more because of tradition.

My mom requires us to hold eating off until 6pm. No meat, fish on Fridays.

I'm giving up swear words, my DS, and coffee. >.>

I only get two meal and no fish every friday and whatever days are "holy".
I suppose trying to curse less would be better. Lord knows every other word out of my mouth some days is some expletive.

My mom brings us back to the traditional fasting, but instead of just bread and water she gives us a little more leeway xD
