List of Give-ups for Lent
Give up complaining; focus on gratitude
Give up pessimism; become an optimist
Give up harsh judgments; think kindly thoughts
Give up worry; trust Divine Providence
Give up discouragement; be full of hope
Give up bitterness; turn to forgiveness
Give up hatred; return good for evil
Give up anger; be more patient
Give up gloom; enjoy the beauty around you
Give up jealousy; pray for trust
Give up gossiping; control your tongue
Give up sin; turn to virtue
Those might be a little bit harder to give up than just chocolate or the computer.....

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT GIVE UP CHOCOLATE!! That in of itself is a big no-no!!! :)
This looks like a great list - and one that will take constant thought! Have a prayerful and blessed Lent!
