              I have honestly no idea. There's nothing I do every day that should be given up.

                I'm promising to take care of my body.
                That means staying on Atkins cheat free and, once my dr gives me the okay, exercise regularly.
                So I guess I'm not giving up my bad habits of being lazy and eating poorly.

                  Bishops Tell Christians to Give Up Some Carbon for Lent

                  Two Church of England Bishops want their followers to join them in a "Carbon Fast" for Lent, the 40 day period in which many Christians abstain from eating or imbibing some favored item.

                  But really the plan is closer to a carbon diet than a fast. According to the UK's Independent, those joining the fast will, among other carbon-cutting tips, "be asked to remove one lightbulb from a prominent place in the home and live without it for 40 days."

                  The bishops green stance is not about protecting the environment, per se, but rather a call to lessen global warming's impact on the residents of third-world nations.

                  "It is the poor who are already suffering the effects of climate change. To carry on regardless of their plight is to fly in the face of Christian teaching," James Jones and Dr. Richard Chartres, bishops of Liverpool and London, respectively, said in a statement. "There’s a moral imperative on those of us who emit more than our fair share of carbon to rein in our consumption."
