Jethro that sounds difficult! I'm sure I couldn't do it. I do, however, often fast (regular Catholic fast such as Coffeegal is doing) on the Fridays of Lent and some years on Wednesdays too. This year I'm not though.
I also like the idea of adding doing something such as extra acts of kindness or ...

It was interesting to read about the different methods of keeping Lent. I have never heard of taking Sundays off during Lent although I know it's a feast day. Here we just go from Ash Wednesday to the Saturday Easter vigil (although we do take St Patrick's day off and March 25th too, which is a ...

I thought about it for awhile and decided I would give up sweets (on my S-days) even though it may not be exactly sticking to the "Vanilla noS. Lent is temporary, so I will still have the feeling of "it's not forever" which is, to me, the best part of NoS.
Since that's only giving something up for ...

Yes, that is how it was in the 1950's here. Fat people stood out and were the exception rather than the rule. I doubt it was from the (often atrocious) diet they ate, but from the fact that most people ate three meals a day and few snacks. Kids played outside more and most adults were more active ...

This post made me feel very sad for anyone trying that diet (which I don't know about) where you only eat when your stomach growls. Especially people thinking you should leave it all up to God about when it's time to eat. I'm sure the dear Lord is too busy to tell us every time we're hungry- that's ...
