Like the days following Mardi Gras (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lenten

(Other definitions for lenten that I've seen before include "Of the Christian penitential season" , "Refers to the period before Easter" , "Referring to a fast time" , "Appropriate to period before Easter" , "Of the pre-Easter period" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
