With the new year looming just ahead like a vulture spying the carcass of a three day old possum an annual tradition starts to manifest. The New Year's Resolution.

So what's your resolution this year and do you really feel like you'll be able to stick with it? Or do you even have one?

Later, QD.

I just wanna get back in shape. Ever since I started my full time job I got lazy, stopped working out, and put on a few pounds. I'm still not big I just miss being in good shape. Also to get a place but thats a must.

I'm trying to get down to 200. I've been at it since the week before T-Giving, but I really will push for it for the beginning of the new year. Later, QD.

Get a place to live, finish putting my stupid ass car back together, continue to work out at the gym like I have been for the past month or so.


To everyone who is quiting or has recently stopped smoking: CHEW GUM!! and dont give in. Seeing people do it and drinking are the hardest times to not light one up. I quit September of last year cold turkey....finished a pack one night and never picked a cigg up again. You will be surprised how much better you feel and smell once you quit.


OK....im done ranting.

I think you are correct, sir, lol! Biking sounds like a fun exercise. You can take it somewhere different and take in some new scenery if your normal route gets old. Good luck with the new baby, I think that is awesome!

You know that this hasn't been as hard for me to quit as I thought. I'm a guy that has been drinking AT LEAST a two liter bottle AND a six pack (24 oz) of Mountain Dew...per day....for the last 10+ years. I was literally an alcoholic for Mtn. Dew. Since the beginning of November, I have only had one two liter bottle and one 24oz bottle of Dew. And I drank my first Mtn Dew of this period just two weeks ago. It was easy. All I drink now is ice water and ice tea. Milk sometimes and some OJ. Later, QD.

I used to be a soda addict, but over the last year I've chilled out on them a bit. I just want to drop them completely, so I'll limit myself to water, lemonade, most juices, and sweet tea.

I might have the occasional Baja Blast Mountain Dew from TB, but that's cause that's the best drink ever. :goodjob:

Congrats on dropping the MD though, reps for healthiness.

to find a stable job, get my own place so my daughter, wife & i can live in piece.
change my attitude from "i dont give a fuck" to " i really dont give a fuck" ( which means to stress less)

2009 was a year full of hell & no happiness, so 2010 i will brush off any stressful situations & walk away from little fights or problems.


QD my old school broda, have a happy & safe New Year
& that goes for everyone on IA as well.

Not so much in terms of resolutions.
but eliminate:
"dayum!! Really?"
"oh hail nahhhh!!! Wow..."
And
"dawg, you can't be serious!!?" From the last 12mths.

And increase the:
"Now that's what's up!!"
"good shit! "
And
"Knew I could do it!"
For next year and beyond....reduce the "oops!" Moments in life. Makes it easier to do what's benificial for ya.

I would like to start saving the money I have been spending on aboslutely nothing so I have more money in the bank so I don't feel broke all the time. I am litterally spending like 600 dollars a month on complete BS! I would like to do something with my car but I don't think my original plans will fall through in March, because I have adjusted my plans. I would like to work on not being as stressed out over small stuff anymore and last but not least, FIND A MAN THAT IS WORTH IT!

5'8" I have a really lean build. Its what a lifetime of track does to you, =/. I weight about 140lbs. now, but to get above that I have to be eating correctly (stuffing my face with protein) and working out regularly, both of which I haven't been doing lately.

Jecht: I feel you 100%, and I'm taking action now. I just set a date to begin my work out routine to coincide with the new yrs to help motivate myself and make it easier to keep track of progress. When it comes to making better financial decisions, I've been working on that this last 6 months and I've noticed a difference already.

Not really true. Like for example, I'm looking at buying my first place, I moved back in June, worked in NC for 4-5 of the 6 months I've been home. I've looked at a few places and pretty much am decided. Not something I could have done this year, because part of it had to do with the fact I had to save some money.

Everything else I started.

my new years resolution has already been made and accomplished. it was to be happy with myself and who i'm with. things are already looking up and i cant wait to see what this year has in store for us! IF i could possibly do anything better, it would be to manage money a little better, but i just like spoiling my miss thang lol. its a bad habit! i've made sacrifices in several areas already and not once have i thought twice about doing so. THATS what i'm talking about. :)

Stop smoking cigs.

Hit the gym again. This time last year I was benchin well over 300, I want to hit the 450 mark sometime this year, and to lose atleast 20lbs.

Start clearing trees off my other property and start building my second house, and give the one I own now, back to my parents.

Do more stuff with my parents, over the last few years Ive moved on from being around them. Take my dad on fishing trips, hunting trips. Do more things with my mom, I am her only child, so it's killing her that I am grown now.

Finally, to find a good woman and settle down. TEH DUB OH is ready for a wife and kids, and yes it's true.

No resolution, I just plan on continuing what I started last year which was to work hard at everything and, make better decision finacially, and change lives if I can.
