Although I do not claim to be pious or deeply religous, I still adhere to most Catholic traditions including Lent. However, I personally feel like the 'no meat' on fridays during the event is completely bogus. Sacrificing during lent is the entire point, so I figure I will just give up two things instead but keep meat in there. As a lifter giving up the backbone of my diet on fridays for over a month is just impractical. Yes, if I really wanted to I could eat fish, etc. but the problem is that I do not enjoy food from the ocean and most of it makes me vomit. Any other Catholics out there feel the same way?
