178.0. "New Years Resolutions" by PHENIX::BOONE () Mon Dec 28 1987 04:59

    
    
           The other day my husband commented to my about the fact that
      I really don't take care of myself like I used to. After, getting
      mad about it and finally taking a look at what he was really trying
      to say, I realized that he was right. And I can blame most of
      it on my weight. Standing 5'2 1/2" tall and weighing in at 155
      pounds is not really my ideal weight. 
           Time and time again throughout this notesfile, I've heard
      people say (mainly A.L.A.) that in order to bring out changes
      and sustain those changes you must do it for yourself and only
      YOU can do it!! Which is exactly right. So, I'd like to start
      my New Year's Resolution List off with:
    
       In the future, I'm going to SERIOUSLY try to get down to and
      MAINTAIN my ideal weight.(120-125)
       No more binging when I'm not even hungry.
       And last but not least, I will try to look the best that I can
      possibly look and feel GOOD about myself.

178.51988 the year in review...CADSE::WILLIAMSThu Dec 08 1988 12:1923
    Interesting, very interesting....I have my new years resolution
    from jan 1988 in my desk and looking at them one says 'lose X number
    of pounds'...o.k. I confess I lose some but not all of that excess
    baggage that I have been carrying around...Although I didn't gain
    any weight from last year it is now time to think about why I didn't
    reach my goal/resolution this year....hmmm...I could give lots of
    excuses but the real reason I guess it because I really wasn't
    motivated to go any farther in my weightloss...
    
    I guess I have semi-maintained and now I want to go farther...NOW
    I will write for all the weightloss world to see...my new 1989 years
    resolution for 1989 is to 
    
    		Lose 15 pounds...
    
    O.k. I said it in public...
    What a relief...
    Oh boy...now I have to stick to it...this shouldn't be hard...with
    all the support here...
    
    Thanks and Happy Holidays...

	My resolution is to lose enough weight(40-50 lb) to fit back
	in all those good clothes that I cant wear. I was going to
	start yesterday after we finished all the food and drink
	left over from the holidays (yes we over indulged). Then
	our frinds came over with more champagne and a bucket of
	chicken wings. Needless to say yesterday was a lost one
	as far as diets go. But today, well so far so good.
