Yes. There are 40 days in Lent. However if you count the number of days from Ash Wednesday to Holy Saturday (the day before Easter) you may find there are more than 40 days depending on the year. Every Sunday is a celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, but we do not break our fast at anytime. These Sundays are still part of Lent. Those that do not abstain from meat for the full period only abstain from meat on Fridays, You must give something else up in addition to the meat for the period of Lent. Something which is difficult for you and which would be a sacrifice. In addition you are to abstain in general, give alms (services, money, etc.), and pray everyday.
