I must say I am very proud of myself for how my Lent sacrifices are going. Besides the cookies I ate at the very beginning (remember it was a life or death situation) I have not cheated!
Don't let me fool you, it has been extremely hard. I thought alcohol was going to be harder than sweets, but I was wrong. It is amazing how often you come into contact with sugary sweet delights. Either at stores, cafes, or people offering them to you, sweets are EVERYWHERE! So many times I have finished dinner and wanted "a little something sweet" but cannot have it. My roommate Lizzy has really been putting me to the test, besides the devil like tiramisu she made, she made yummy looking pistachio cookies that I really want. They are currently sitting out on the table and I have to avert my eyes each time I pass. So sad.
Again I thought alcohol would be the hardest to give up, but really it hasn't been. I guess it is because Adsy doesn't drink that much, and we don't go out to pubs or bars a lot either. Those two things make it much easier to give up alcohol because I am not around it.
Anyway not that any of you really care about this, but I am proud of myself. Now only 17 more days to go!
