What was your New Years Resolution for 2007? Mine was to get WLS    (acheived) What is it for 2008? Exercise more often Have a safe and Happy New Year       

I guess my Resolution would be to excercise more.  I really dont have a weight goal because I dont know what a normal weight for me would be.

I didn't make any for 2007, but for 2008, it's to get approved for surgery and have it!!!  Might be a long road...but I am in it for the long haul. Happy New Year's Eve to all my wonderful and dear friends.

I didnt have a resoltuion. Honestly never make them because I am not good at keeping them. If I were to set a New Years Resolution it would be to lose 100lbs. With my surgery coming next week I know if I use my tool the way I am suppose to, I can do it!

Mika, Congrats on your upcoming surgery. We go to the same office! If you need anything, support, a shoulder to cry on or a visitor at the hospital, let me know. My surgeon was Dr. Lahmann....and I worked very close with Dr. Joyce as well when I fell ill.  I'll keep you in my prayers!!!

I don't remember having one. I DO know that I have begun the dreaded exercise program, so I will resolve to continue, even though 4 am comes REALLY early. For 2008, I will not make and actual resolution either, but I will hope to be able to be happy with who I am, even if I never reach "goal weight". Happy New year to you and your family!

HI LISA , MY FOREVER ANGEL......  MY  2007 RESOLUTION WAS FOR WLS (ACHEIVED) FOR 2008 DEFINITELY MORE EXERCISE.  I AM PLANNING ON GOING TO WALK THE MALL AS OFTEN AS I CAN. AS LEAST 3 DAYS A WEEK FOR ONE HOUR.  THAT IS MY GOAL.  HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.  GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS.

I had an obscene weight goal for myself.  I wanted to be under 250 pounds.  Seeing as I started the year at 310, I thought it was such a long shot, that even if I got in to the 260's I would be happy.  Well I missed it by 1 pound.  1 POUND!!!!!  I can't believe I nearly hit it.  I guess I am going to make a goal weight for 2008 as 175 pounds.  75 pounds in 08, can I do it?

Mine was to go back to work...actually to get a job by the end of the year.  It almost took that long.  I was offered the job I accepted on December 14th, so I was running out of time

I had two...thanks Willow for creating a Yahoo Group so I could go back and see what they were... 1. Get Plastic Surgery to have my extra skin around my middle and thighs removed...I've only been saying I'm going to do this for a year now (I've even had two consultations with Dr. Madry...but now I'm wondering about Dr. Katzen in CA since he will try to get insurance approval..unlike Madry). I'm going to the Grand Canyon in June and really want the extra skin gone by then. Accomplished in February.  Had the skin removed but need a revision on my inner thighs as the PS didn't pull tight enough.  Have no idea when I'll do that. 2. Finish what I started last year. In May 2006, I started skydiving lessons in hopes of getting my A license in 2007. I did a tandem dive in 2005 and an accelerated freefall jump in May 2006. I was planning on making several more jumps in 2006 until I broke my arm in a construction accident in late July and spent all of August and part of September in a cast. Kind of put the whole jumping out of planes thing on hold. But it's full steam ahead in 2007...depending on when I get my plastics done as that is first priority. This one fell through the cracks thanks in part to the high gas prices and me owning a SUV.  Plus, with travel, competing in agility with my Akita, and getting a Border Collie pup in September, I just didn't have the money or time.  Maybe eventually, I'll get my skydiving license. As for 2008, my resolution is to make no more resolutions.  That way, I have no pressure to get things done.
