How do you observe Lent?

Lent starts on Ash Wednesday and ends on Easter Sunday.

To participate in Lent in the Catholic religion, you have to fast, or give up, meat on Ash Wednesday and every Friday until Easter Sunday. Also, if you are not a small child, you have to give up something additional. You have to give up something that could harm you or be bad for anyone in some way. For example, you could give up TV or video games. i am giving up meat for the whole lent instead of just fridays. i am also going to stop gossiping because it could hurt others.

Lent in Christianity means giving up dairy for the whole lent i think.

Im not sure about Christianinity because i am not Christian, but i am positive for Catholicism.
