Ive made a decision that over this lenten period (and not for religious reason, i wont hide behind lent as a reason to do something, ive never been overtly religious and thus it would be hypcritical of me to do it under that guise) that im going to give up Facebook , Twitter, Chocolate (in all forms) and Fizzy Drinks
Now to a casual bystander, that might sound simple, but you need to know me personally to know that not only is this a tough task to achieve for me. I am quite the internet person. i do at times live on Chocolate, Coca Cola, Facebook and Twitter. In work i’d have a few cans of coke, then maybe same at home. Chocolate bars in abundance and i would regularly be checking my facebook or twitter and chatting away with people
So the task here is to see if i can
1) cut out the most important things in my day and see if i can last 40 days without them
2) lose weight by cutting out the type of food i eat which is most likely to make me hold onto or gain weight.
3) to support my mate chuck in his giving up of alcohol for the lenten period.
This will be an endurence event for me. So i will have to use restraint on a lot of occasions over the next couple of weeks.
So far in the 5 days ive had to drive the entirety of the M50 behind a Coca Cola truck, Give away 3 cans of coke that came with ordered food as part of a deal. Watch friends and co-workers tuck into coke and chocolate on purpose of trying to break me.
5 Days in, Not one of my 4 has been broken
Now were on day 6, Monday February 22nd. Still going strong.
Will update here every couple of days to update if im still going
