This year for lent I have decided to give up two of my favorite things, starbucks and candy. It is going to be pretty hard since I have an addiction both. I am ashamed to say that I can be seen most mornings at the starbucks on calgary trail and 34th waiting for my triple venti non fat no whip sugar free cinnamon dolce latte... it will be hard stop, I'll have to resort to drinking the weak bland coffee from the work coffee pot...sick. But I'm pretty certain I can do it, and on the plus side it will be a nice break on my bank account. 
The candy on the other hand will be a challenge on a whole other level, I love candy. My candy of choice...sour gummies, namely jolly rancher screamin' sours. I usually have at least on bag a week, they're just so good, my mouth is watering just thinking about them now, I haven't really come up with a strategy on how I'm going to go a whole month with out them, or any candy for that matter I guess just take it one day at a time...after all Jesus went for 40 days without any food so I'm pretty sure I can go without candy for that long.
Is anyone else giving something up? Or have you in the past?

It's funny because my mouth was totally watering looking at those screamin' sours! Those are SO great. They also have new maynards candy out (not winegums but maynards circa 2007 gummies...so good!) I am giving up 711. Namely buying juices and other munchies. But I have already had an urge to go pick up a treat! Good luck!
I have never given up anything in the past, but I'm starting to think that I might try it out this year. When does it start?
It already started nerd!
Good luck Joce!
those sours do look awesome...i've never tried those...the thing i'm seriously addicted to, is slurpees.
I was sober for like a few years...but i got sucked back into them these past couple months...i've never given up anything for lent before, so slurpees will by my first try...
okay put that halarious picture of that snowman up! AND send me a freaking copy! Get on it!
