I gave up drinking soda. Longest. Forty. Days. Ever. But by the end of it I noticed that I didn't really miss it terribly. Granted, once I'd been drinking it again for a week or two, the addiction was back in full swing.Susie J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09250031957894104870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-82976616252318299252010-03-07T18:26:51.487-07:002010-03-07T18:26:51.487-07:00I was persuaded by a friend to give up sugar for L...I was persuaded by a friend to give up sugar for Lent this year, I've never done it before but thought it would be a fun test of will power.

Lent - yes, but also fish every Friday during Lent. (Growing up in NY, the school cafeteria served only fish on Friday's during lent. I think that was about the time I started opting for cookies for lunch.)<br /><br />So much for giving up fish for Lent.ganellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09519303711680945864noreply@blogger.com
