I know its kind of late lol but this random thought came to me. would it be sinful to keep your lenten sacrifice throughout the whole of lent ? like even on Sundays and the solemnities that fall in lent. FYI I am not talking about if a solemnity fell on Friday I know we wouldn’t have to abstain from meat I am asking about our own personal lenten sacrifice. thanks

You can do your private devotions however you want.

The Church discourages us from fasting on Sundays and solemnities, however, it is not a sin to do so (unless you’re under obedience to a superior who has told you not to do that). Some holy people have chosen to fast anyway. And many have chosen to not fast on those days, perhaps because they wish to be obedient to the Church’s suggestions and/or think it’s important to celebrate Sundays and solemnities.

There are also other sacrifices you could make that might be more appropriate for a Sunday, such as extra time spent in prayer.
