I'm starving!

I'm going to need to buy some Dexatrim to get through Lent 
Come on, someone show some pity for me, please

Maybe think about getting a nice massage, manicure, pedicure instead of thinking about food.
Good luck.
ammommy replied:
Oh, I wish. Unfortunately, it's housecleaning day because Mom is coming for a visit. At least dinner isn't a crockpot recipe so I won't smell it all day 
salmndr007 replied: What exactly did you give up for Lent? Food in general?  Good luck. I wish the best for you and I know you will get through it with flying colors.
ammommy replied:
No, just today and most of Holy Week
Dinner is in only 4 hours 
coasterqueen replied: I was going to ask what you were giving up for Lent too?  I couldn't completely fast, but I do give up one thing that I really love that I usually eat every day.
ediep replied: well, you are doing much better than I am....I read in the church bulliton that Ash Wednesday fast includes 2 small snacks and 1 real meal but no meat.
I asked my Dad (deacon at our church) if cereal is a meal and he said no, its a snack. soooooo, I had cereal this morning, a small cup of minestrone soup for lunch and I am having a veggie burger for dinner.....
I am dying for a munchie right now
I think for Lent I am giving up soda
ammommy replied: For Lent, I am giving up my Starbuck's trips. Then I'm taking the money that I'd spend there and give it to our Church's outreach program.
holley79 replied: ALl I can do is offer up a I'm SO sorry. You will make it I have faith in you. I have no clue about lent. How long does it last?
mom21kid2dogs replied: We've been staying outside mostly today. It helps keep my mind & my hands out of food! I almost blew it when I got my mail though. My stuff came from Addicted To Scrapbooking and they stuck in 3 pieces of hard candy. I unwrapped one, almost had it in my mouth and then went "Oh, yeah!"  I should give up coffee~now THAT would be a sacrifice (not only for me but all who know & love me!!)Good luck!
C&K*s Mommie replied: give yourself a big pat on the back tomorrow, for making it through today (which you will).
