New Years Resolutions?

Hi Everyone, Does anyone have any goals for next year for weight loss or anything else? I want to maintain my weight loss this next year. I also want to do more exercising and spending more time with my grandkids. Let me know what you think. Mona

Mona, This past year has been amazing in weight loss, and now I know that I have to make exercising a priority as well. I can not believe that I have been able to lose so much since Jan. 17th., as my one year anniversary comes up, I am so thankful to Dr. Anthone for helping me get back to the size I was 35 years ago. Never once did I think that was possible, I don't want to take that for granted. God has blessed us with a second chance at better health and we need to be smart enough to maintain that. I would also like to stay right where I am at with my weight. I also LOVE spending time with my daughters and granddaughters (and my husband too!) Happy New Years to all. Joyce L.

Hello Ms. Mona Goals yes i have a couple of them one is to be 20 pds lighter by January of 2008. I have a mini goal to be 10 pds lighter by January 22, 2007. That's when I visit with Dr. Holloway. Other goals try to stay young and be wiser probally will never happen maybe that should be my fanasty. Oh well be good and have a good year and it has been nice to have you and Kenny for a dear friend. jimmy

New Year's resolutions huh? Well this year I'm going to try to maintain or gain only a small amount while pregnant. After this baby comes I'm hoping to get closer to my goal weight. I have about 32 pounds to go until I'm there. So I'd like to get atleast half way there. So as soon as July comes I'm hittin it hard. I'm also going to try and excercise more. I slacked during the 1st trimester. Just too tired. So I'm back to the gym next week!!! Happy New Year!! Jess EDD 7/5 253/172/140

Hi I live in Wyoming and had my Surgery in Scottsbluff. Sorry I am going to butt in as you are closer than anyone else. My Resolutions would be to visit my Mom more, she is 89. To find a councelor or someone to help me with my revenge eating. Something bugs me I eat 'slippy stuff". Don't tell Dr. H. And finally learn not to react to people that push my buttons which lead to the revenge eating. Thanks for listening!!Marilyn

Hi Marilyn, welcome to the group. Feel free to let us know how you are doing. Your secret is safe with me. Try not to let people get to you. It is their problem if they have problems with you. The best revenge is to get thinner and healthier. Good luck. Mona

My goals for 2007 are to get started on a exercise program and stick to it on a regular basis and not just hit and miss. Goal number two is to drop another 10 pounds. That will put me a smidge below my goal, but it also means that I will not volley over two or three pounds above my goal. I certainly hope that you all have a wonderful 2007. Hazel

hi... I am new to this forum but have a sister who told me about it. She is one year post-op and doing well. My new years resolution is to make this year the one I become as healthy and fit as possible. I am doing it for myself but also in memory of my son who passed away unexpectedly a year ago at christmas time. 2006 was a very difficult year but I need to move on and improve my own health so can not let my son's death overtake my life. I want to live a fuller life. I weigh over 300 lbs and am seriously thinking of gastric bypass because everything I have ever done was not permanent weight loss for me. I have lost and gained 100 lbs and more than once. Will keep coming here for info and support so that 2007 is a much better year. Would appreciate and listen to any and all feedback....thanks SKH
