So...it's April already. How many of those new years resolutions have you stuck to/kept/achieved already?
I didn't set many because I only forget about them. Mine were more, long term changes - stick at the gym, learn more about what I'm eating, I put on a little bit of weight at the end of last year so I wanted to lose that again and I'm well on my way thanks to the other changes.
I've also got others like changing my job, going to uni, moving house. I'm trying with the job thing but the other 2 can't happen until Mark graduates.
So I think I am pretty much on track.
How did everybody else do?

I have not kept mine, either , which is a good thing. I resolved to eat more, exercise less, and start smoking again.
Someone insisted I make some, and that was what they got!

Alaynna! 26lbs since JAN!? Whats your secret? Well done to you and to Jenni.
Fwan the scales can be so misleading sometimes. How often are you weighing yourself? I would definately go by how your clothes feel on you rather than the horrible scales.

Mine was to lose a few pounds and I am really struggling but I am still trying. I can do reallly well monday thru friday but the weekends just fall apart for me because we aren't ever at home. that means eating out and I am really picky and its hard to find healthy choices at the race track where everything is fried....

How do you learn more about what you're eating? Before you eat an apple, do you say, "Hey Mr. Apple! Have you ever been to Hawaii? Do you have any kids?"


I stuck to my two resolutions this year. I've avoided excessive drinking. And no, I wasn't a lush before that! I just had a couple of drunks too many that made me never want to feel that again.
My other one was to get in good shape by May, but I've already begun to exceed that goal. Maybe I set the goals too low though because I don't really look much different.
I'm aiming a little higher now. I feel better than the last three or four years though, save for my ankles.
