Since it hasn't been asked...
Are you making any resolutions this year?
What are they?
Re: Since it hasn't been asked...
Hmmm. Well, losing weight is on my list every year, so might as well say that.
Saying that I will try to eat out less is also a recurring resolution, add that on. lol.
It would be nice to get prego this year, not sure if that's a resolution or not though. Haha. We'll see.
I'd also like to aggressively save this year since the market is so low.
Not really a new year's resolution since I've already lost 15 lbs, but to lose more weight and generally get in shape.
I also need to be more positive. This year is going to be about new starts for me.
I have a few...
1. Pass the bar
2. Be more of a homebody...eat home more, stay more organized at home, do projects, etc
3. Be healthier with my diet and exercise.
4. Commit to putting more in savings each month
1. Lose weight (always on my list)
2. Continue to save as aggressively as we have been
3. Buy a house
4. Try to do new things that are out of my comfort zone
5. Go to church more often and be more involved
6. Focus on my job and doing it better
9/19/12: Miscarriage at 12wks due to Triploidy, D&C 9/24/12 - I will forever miss you my little angel
1. get back in tip top shape.
2. Save aggresively.
3. MOVE
4. Be more generous!
1. Go to the gym at least once a week
2. Finish a 5K
3. Donate to at least 3 charities
4. Focus on my vision board
5. Stay true to my goal of not spending a dime outside of necessities in 2010.
I don't have a single one.
Signed,
Girl who never kept them anyway, and whose life is about to turn upside down.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
Our 2 major goals for 2010:
1) Move back to MN
2) get a BFP
Less major goals:
1) Get back to eating better and working out
2) Save money for our move back to MN
3) Pay off student loans (almost there)
to be nicer to myself.
for those that don't have one, i had fun playing with this yesterday: new year's resolution generator
1. Finish California Dreamin' Series
2. Do a tri in late summer or fall
3.After giving birth, be back to normal Kirkette size by Dec.
- try not to be so pessimistic (I got this from my father) and stop b!tching so much about living in lithuania. when it comes down to it, I need to remind myself that it's not that bad here.
- eat less processed sh!t
1. Be more focused and productive at work
2. Be more positive
3. Save money
4. Try to eat a little healthier
I usually don't even bother with resolutions, but I think I'll give it a go this year. Regardless of the new year, these are things I need to be doing!
1. Lose at least 25 pounds.
2. Make fewer frivolous purchases.
3. Pass the adult silver-level skating test.
Good luck! What do they require by the way of jumps/spins at that level?
It's a two-parter. First I have to do all of this which is entirely footwork, no jumps/spins:
Duration: 14 min
Then I have to skate a program to music that has all of this:
Jump sequence with half or single revolution jumps
1 spin from Layback, Attitude, or Sit (4 revs)
Combo spin with only 1 change of position; change of foot is optional (3 revs/position)
