That's a great one, something I've resolved to do as well! I eat way too much sugar! (and my snug pants are the proof!)

Which brings me to my next reslolution to lose 30-40 lbs.

I also want to budget my money better.

You're not the only one! I'll be 28 this year and I too don't have my licence!!

This is mine and on the very top priority for me. To help stop all exotic ban laws!!!!

To finish my book by year's end
To keep losing weight
To bring Mike back to full health and keep him losing weight (He's lost 27 pounds!)
To keep my resolve of no more fast foods
To drink more water
To re-establish contact with an old friend

Wow....these are awesome....

Mine are:

*Stop worrying over every little thing
*To keep up an exercise program and turn fat into muscle! It would be great to lose weight--but I rather have muscle at this point than flab
*Reorganize my house including the closets!

Mine are...

To stop dwelling on being the black sheep of the family, and be greatful for having a wonderful hubby and daughter.

Join a gym

Get on a plane! 35 and still scared!

be more positive about things, it seems like I have become pretty negative about things in the last year and that has to stop

continue eating healthy and hopefully drop more weight and get to the Big goal by the end of the year

stay in touch with old friends more then ones or twice a year

To stop taking on board anything negative.
Continue my meditation (a bit lax these days)
Be kinder to my mother (thats a toughie)
Stop spending my money on impulse buys (repeat after me - I have enough fabric)
Wonder if I will stick to any of them??

Thanks, you too

Try hard to lose 110 pounds and if I could possibly manage by June for my sons college graduation it would be great!!

Here are mine:

to learn once and for all to love Bobbie. I have always had pretty low self-esteem.
to try new things: see different kinds of movies, travel more (day trips), different foods
to read the Bible more, a little bit, every day

This year, I'm going to set resolutions/goals that are obtainable. Such as:

To lose weight (50 lbs.)
To quit smoking
To organize, organize, organize!!!! (Paper work!)
To keep a 3.0 GPA
To start walking at least 3x/week

I'm really going to try hard this year.......the 1st 2 are the most important to me.

I wish eveyone luck with their resolutions!!!
