    Being that its soon going to be 365 days from the day when you made that promise.

    Guess you're all toned now, and in a new relationship, on a higher wage etc etc etc.
    So well done, I guess its time for some chocolate cake now, given so much fat has been lost, its well deserved and wont effect the ol 6 pack.

    Some years back I made a New Year resolution to never make a resolution for New Year ever again.

    It's been quite successful.

    I actually did drop nearly 3 stone


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,970 ✭✭✭Lenin Skynard


    My resolution to become a little fatter and a little balder worked out perfectly. Might make the same one this year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,076 ✭✭✭Eathrin


    I had a less shít year than 2011.
    I actually think that that was my resolution.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,411 ✭✭✭✭woodchuck


    Well I got a new job and my full drivers license like I wanted... pass the cake please :P

    I got pregnant, gave up drinking, smoking & lost weight all at the same time.
    Not too shabby.
    I didn't want or need to lose weight though, side effect of being sick all the time :(

    I did the Watusi for three minutes and almost dislocated my hip.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,579 ✭✭✭charlietheminxx


    I met the most amazing guy in January and we're still together.

    I smoked my last cigarette 4 & a half months ago.

    I start a new job next week with better pay and a chance to do some further training.

    So errrrrr aside from the 2 stone I've put on, it's been a good year :p

    As long as the '2 stone' is evenly spread then you're laughing, you know, 1 stone on each buttock, that type of thing.

    I don't mind having a booty so much, if only the weight gain didn't extend to my thighs! Gives me something to work on for next year I guess :)

    I didn't make any, but I'm doing very well this year, so I'm quite happy

    I don't make New Years resoultions anymore

    I'm more concerned with the fact that come January my gym will be busier :( They should have special New Years resolution sessions!

    I'll be starting a new job in February, a nice step up from my current position.

    I can't wait to see the back of 2012 its been a tough last 6 months!

    I'm in a better role in my job, lost a bit of weight, got rid of both cars, am saving more and am having much more sex than last year.

    YES!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,639 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat


    I said I'd give up drink for the year. So far so good and only 22 days left to a momentous hangover.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,127 ✭✭✭smcelhinney


    Being that its soon going to be 365 days from the day when you made that promise.

    My resolution was to always correct people when they're wrong. Its actually gonna be 366 days since I made this resolution.

    Go me..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,430 ✭✭✭positron


    I gave up sugar in tea as a new years resolution some five years ago, and it's still going strong - among the dozens of broken ones...!

    Now If someone is looking for a real challenge, look up www.reddit.com/r/nofap That's right - giving up fapping!! Serial fappists have been challenged.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,050 ✭✭✭whatlliwear


    I quit smoking :)........ but I didn't pass my drivers test.. I will in 2013 for sure :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 174 ✭✭Q_ueeny


    My last new years resolutions were to move into my own house and buy a new car.

    Done both :D

    This year I will be setting a weight loss target or 4 stone by April 21st!

    Lets do this!! :)

    Same :D (Although I haven't run a race yet, but it's on the cards.) Didn't think I'd actually keep it up for the year so I'm quite happy with myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,090 ✭✭✭tiny_penguin


    I had a few and they seem to be going well

    Lose weight - have lost over 3.5 stone since january
    Get fitter - still not where I'd like to be but am definitely fitter than I was last year, could hardly even run half a kilometer - ran half the mini marathon in june and could prob do better if I tried it today.
    Get a new/permanent job - got a permanent job in August and love it
    Start saving properly - did this too, put away a bit every month and while I am dipping into it for xmas have surpassed my saving goals


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 555 ✭✭✭Hippies!


    I tried giving up the booze but failed miserably, on the plus side I've only been in A&E four times so far this year in relation to my drinking.

    So well done, I guess its time for some chocolate cake now, given so much fat has been lost, its well deserved and wont effect the ol 6 pack.

    Heh, nope, still married to the same guy.

    I did lose some 7 or 8 kg in weight, though, got a promotion and a little more money. I also passed my driving test last Saturday, so yay. Good year.
