Best Answer

You can have whatever you gave up 40 days after you gave it up.

Roman Catholic AnswerLent technically ends right before the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Thursday evening, so, if you want to get technical about it, you could probably get it back right after Mass on Holy Thursday. However, it is up to you, and in the spirit of Lent, you should probably wait until after Mass on Easter, which is when the feasting for the Easter season begins.

Lent starts on Ash Wednesday and you give something up for 40 days (not including Sundays) until after the Easter Vigil. Lent formally ends on Holy Thursday but the fast remains until Easter
