Lent: A period of 40 days before Easter during which many Christians do not eat certain foods or do certain pleasurable activities as a way of remembering the suffering of Jesus Christ.

Most people give up a certain type of food for the 40 days, and it can be an ultimate struggle.

1. When you spend all of Ash Wednesday deciding what to give up.

Candy? Chocolate? Cursing? Netflix?

2. When someone tells you there is something on your face on Ash Wednesday.

Ha. I know and you aren't funny.

3. When all you want to eat is meat but it's Friday.

Being a vegetarian once a week is hard.

4. Seeing your friends eating/doing what you gave up.

Not cool dude, not cool.

5. When people think they can eat/do what they gave up on Sundays.

Not sure when Sunday's stopped counting the 40 days of lent, but it doesn't work like that.

6. Trying not to complain.

The point of lent is not to make us miserable, but 40 days is a long time.

7. When it's finally Easter Morning.

After a long 40 days, you can finally eat or do what you gave up. You should feel proud of yourself, and maybe you will give it up for good!
