I went from a 12 to a 10 from September, I'm aiming for an 8 by the Spring. Good luck (*munches apple*). <'> ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the source of the extra pounds Curra Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JsMum Report post Posted January 5, 2007 I like this post and I am going to have a go, and then check in 6 months time to see if I can tick any off, I know many resolutions dont ever go the distance but this year I am going to try very hard to see if I can at least achieve some of them and their goals rather than resolutions. so here goes. Learn to drive a car ( I am having lessons and I find it very hard to focus and follow instructions so taking a bit longer, may need the whole of 2007 to achieve this!!!! but I am not going to quit learning.) Be more organised and plan more but try and follow throw. Find a baby sitter and go out in the evening once a week Be open to happiness and let it in, not been afraid of it, as I am so use to struggling its going to be funny when I finally am happy and relaxed. Carry on my voluntary work in Mental Health and gain some qualifications that will help me get a job in the future in this field. Do a Family spanish course at the local school Go to bed before 11pm so no more on here past 10:30pm Continue my running programme and yoga class. A pamper day once a month, massage, hair and nails, relax ect.... And to continue supporting J. My resolution this year is to enjoy 2007. JsMum Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss Report post Posted January 5, 2007 Hmmmm.....I'm not sure what my resolutions are......does trying to crack a muffin addiction count? Maybe I could do what your doing Mel and make a resolution to eat just one muffin a day? Seriously though, I really admire your resolutions Jsmum, good luck with them, and may just pinch a few Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the source of the extra pounds Curra My thinking is the lighter I am the faster I'll run. One of my tentative resolutions is to try and think about maybe running a 10k race this year! I haven't actually said that one out loud though, 'cos I'm not sure I'll make it!! Like you, one of mine was to try and be less stressed this year. Not going so well so far, maybe I'd better increase to two apples a day, maybe that would help! ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first step to winning a race is wanting to win so you have very good chances. I wish I could exercise too but being asthmatic after 300 mt I am out of breath and ready to die . I think that munching apples instead of fatty snacks might do the trick in my case. Curra Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
