Do you have a New Years resolution?????

[DiSanders 1]

I NEED to start exercising. I am not going to wait until New Year-my break starts Friday and I resolve to be up and at the gym before anything else. Even though I will be tempted to sleep in, I KNOW I'll feel more energetic if I work out. Last year I worked with a personal trainer and he really helped me-when I did it...

It took me awhile to respond because I've been fine tuning my resolutions. I refuse to make the same ones every year that I've never been able to stick to before. So:

(This first one is a direct order from my surgeon.)

No more low-fat, non-fat, Diet, sugarfree foods/drinks whatsoever. They're crap that do nothing but cause crash and burn symtoms that make us eat, and they don't help you lose weight.

Instead of giving up booze, I'm giving up beer & cocktails. I'm allowed 2 glasses of wine with a large glass of ice. This way it will last longer and hydrate me at the same time. I'm giving up (sniff) White Zinfendel (candy pants wine) for something grown up with less sugar & taking suggestions. Red wine is gross, so I'll compromise somewhere in the middle.

Never miss a straight-Protein Breakfast. I can have salad with Protein and real dressing for lunch. dinner will be whatever hubby is having, but only one salad plate.

No snacking except on raw fruits & veggies with the exception of movie popcorn 1-2 times a month only - no butter.

Be nicer.

No idea if it has less sugar than white zin, but our favorite white wine is Columbia Winery's "Cellarmaster Riesling".

My resolution is definately to get more exercise and eat healthier. Most importantly, I want to be a better mom and spend more time with my son. I've just been so exausted with this pregnancy and working way too many hours and we haven't spent much time together lately.

1. To get healthier.

2. To get to know my DH's family better and spend more time with them as a family.

For this New Year my goals are to get under 200 lbs. I also want to get to church every week instead of once in a while. I would also like to rekindle a few dwindling friendships and enhance newer ones. I would like to improve on my eating and exercising habits. This last goal, will help me with my first goal. Good luck in the upcoming year to everyone on their goals, and also to anyone not making them.

Save, save, save! DH and I are both really bad about impulsive purchases, and I don't mean $10 here, $20 there - I'm talking "Oh, these leather couches would look good in the great room" purchases... furniture and anything home decor/design is a real weakness for me, and anything electronics/home theater is a real weakness for him.

We both do 10% into our 401k, we have an additional $2k/month direct-deposited into our savings account (otherwise it would be long gone), and we do *some* additional investing but not nearly enough. We should be saving a lot more and spending a lot less on stuff we don't need. We don't have any credit debt, but I have a lot in student loans - so #2 resolution would be to get thiose paid off too.

That's my new year resolution!

This time I'm really going to do it, I even have a bet with my husband (the bastard is doubting it!). I guess it's because I bought a tread mill a year ago and said the same thing, so far my toddler walks on it more than I do. But this I'm going to walk 30 minutes a day, three times a week!

Happy New year everyone!:confused:

Mine is to be a better person and to not gain any of this 106 lbs I lost now that I no longer have my band.

[Guest newme06]

My new years resolution is to get approved for Banding and Breast Reduction and have both by May '06. I want to have a good grasp on things before the holiday season.
