The same as every year.... I need to lose at least 1 stone in weight and tone up, so I guess it's healthy eating and the gym - again!

Well Me and Mrs galaxy are just starting off on the "gym thing"
I would love to lose at least 15 kilo, not that I am grossly overweight for my height at 81 kilo and 5ft 9ins I just know I felt better when was 15 kilo less.
So that is mine, giving up the snacks, chocolate, and the gallons of cafe late' that I consume in a week.

At 5' 8" and 92k I hope to continue going in the opposite direction. I've had a cold past few days and not been eating much so I dare say I've lost some wait. Can't wait to get back in the gym and put the wait back on plus more. I would like to reduce the body fat a bit more and increase the definition.

So the missus and I are in good company then:bonk:

:lol:

Shall we form an alliance and support each other to keep all these resolutions?

First one not to keep it must undergo some penalty:thinking:

Yes, watch a whole season of Idols in a week:lol:

Hey, I have a great idea, we could have a weight watchers thread :)

We had the TPF 'Slimathon' thread last/this year and I think it died a death. I must have joined it about 5 times :$ I'm determined this year though as my life is about to undergo some major changes.

That right, I was only kidding, but best of luck in your determination for whatever reason it is, mine is the dread of having to move up to a 36ins waist, although I am selective in where I buy my trousers and probably am a 36 already:) just wont buy a 34 ins if they do not fit. I refuse to measure myself!!
Heck, I really am kidding myself:D

Serious Stuff:
Start a second business which I will run with my wife in our spare time.
Concentrate on my existing business and work smarter, not harder!
Try and pay off a large chunk of the mortgage.

Not so serious:
Get good at this photo business!
Start to discover all of Scotland, lived here too long and seen too little. Want to learn more and experience more of my country.
Better diet.
Loose weight.

Gary.

Two years ago my NY resolution was to recycle glass (our council doen't include it in its collections). I'm still reclying glass - despite the fact I now have my own parking spot at the recyc centre :lol: - it's scary how the wine bottles mount up. :(

This year? Drink less wine???? :shrug:

>>>>>I've had a cold past few days and not been eating much so I dare say I've lost some wait.<<<<<

The few times I have been laid up with a virus I have been well chuffed on getting better to find I have lost loads of weight :)

I don't mind lossing weight if it's fat it's losing the muscle mass I don't want to happen. Mind you I hadn't done any weights for about 8 years and after re-starting back in April the mass had increased quite quickly.

Dont normally do the new years resolution thing, but this year I'm going to. It is to get out more with my camera and take more pictures (better ones too), especially of news worthy events in my region. Also I plan to start taking photography more seriuosly and setting up a part time business, got my first wedding booked in Febuary, fingers crossed.

BB....please feel free to add to one of the two threads.I'd be interested to see the thoughts of others. Maybe your take on the position would be exactly what mine was until a week ago.
