Going Without Things
TonkkaSome one in the club tonightHas stolen my ideas.Registered Userregular
Yeah, it isn't lent or anything like that, but I am taking the months of March and April off from drinking alcohol.
I'm not Catholic anyway.
So tonight is my last night of boozing it up since I work until midnight tomorrow and drinking then would be cheating. Yes I am drinking a bunch as I write this terrible OP.
But I am not giving up drinking for the sake of giving up drinking! Oh no! In the next two months I will attempt to quit smoking, start exercising for the first time in like... well it's been a long time since I actively did that.
I don't have to give this up for reasons put upon me by outside forces, but maybe some of you have had interventions or the like, medical or otherwise.

I am trying to curb my spending a bit to save up for a new (second hand car).
Hopefully I will have 4k in the bank by the end of next month.
This will leave me with another 6k to borrow and I'll sell my current one for around 800-1000.
So I am going without rampant spending.
I'll be kinda sorry to see my car go to be honest. I've had him for ten years and he was my first ever car. All of my other friends are on their second, third or fourth cars.
Gonna drink a few $2 drafts at Taco Tuesday tomorrow, and I think that'll be it for booze until, say, my birthday in April. Gotta tighten up my diet too and get more active!

Sometimes I give up judging all the Catholics who drink (on St. Patrick's Day) or gamble (on march madness) during lent.
If you are stopping your drinking you should have a good habit ready to replace the bad one. A stack of books or work out routine has a better chance of getting read/done when you have extra energy and time.
I think I should give up sweets and junk food.
I haven't been consuming a healthy or maintainable diet recently.
I'm on the road of winding up fat- which isn't a terrible thing
but I know it isn't what I am comfortable with having my body become.

One lent I gave up my bed and slept on the floor for 40 days.
Next year I gave up weed
After that I decided giving things up was not for me, also Catholicism was a piece of shit
This is basically the first thing I've heard of anyone giving up for lent that I actually respect. Usually it's something you nominally should give up anyway, like chocolate or soda or cursing. Fuck that, that's not a sacrifice. Give up something you shouldn't give up. Give up shoes or using your right hand, or not smoking.
Anyway, I've been working out more since Jordyn's football practice started back up. I felt dumb sitting around while she was working her ass off, so now I'm doing some arm and shoulder shit, and actually developing some muscle mass for the first time in my life.
I've also started a new diet I invented, it's called "the just don't eat so much" diet. I just don't eat so much; it's working pretty well.

I wanted to try giving up speaking, but then I decided that the whole lent thing was kinda bullshit
I've got a pretty substantial pouch going on, which has not been helped by Jordyn and I taking up drinking. I've actually lost a fair amount of it already, though, and actually can go to the second notch on my belt, which I'm excited about.

On the other side of the spectrum, about eight or ten months ago, I was addicted to and abusing xanax, so after a lot of doctor talking and soul-searching I straight up quit it
I still wish I had some. I would take it every day. If it wasn't a controlled substance, i'd definitely've picked it up again in one of my many weaker moments
