What New Year's Resolutions Did You Keep in 2008?

December 12, 2008

Every year right after Christmas, most of us start thinking about our New Year's resolutions. I try to come up with one I can actually keep, but as we all know, that's easier said than done! Since it's almost that time again, tell me, what New Year's resolutions — if any — did you keep in 2008?

I made an effort to be more active and volunteer more. I ended up doing a triathlon for charity, two birds with one stone!

I always have a list of 10 resolutions for the year; I've only accomplished one and that was to be healthier (though I haven't been AS healthy as I've wanted too. :oops: .) 2009 is a fresh year with new possibilities.

I finally learned to swim and lost some fear of water, and I worked out more than last year :)

I honestly don't remember if I had made any resolutions or not.

To read more, learn to snowboard, and to make 2008 a better year for me than 2007. I kept all of them except snowboarding, it was a crappy year for snow in the Poconos so I just didn't have the chance. That one's back on the list for 2009 along with learning to drive a standard! (That's awesome you did it Lovely!)

I lost weight, too! I started dieting in January, but soon gave up. I restarted in August and have lost 50lbs so far. Better later than never ;) I'm just sorry I didn't keep my resolution to read 100 novels this year - I didn't even come close to that number!

I said I wanted to be friends with more bartenders. Recently I found myself out to sushi and I looked around and realized I was with some of SF's top mixologist...mission accomplished!

I kept them all halfway through the year and then the rest of the year I completely blew them. :( My resolutions were: keep losing weight and becoming debt-free. I'll start working on them again, though.

I don't really make resolutions for the sake of it being New Year's. When I do, it is usually something reasonable and specific. I did last year though and I kept it. It was to keep up my physical therapy and work on getting my walking legs back as part of an accident recovery. BTW, great resolution adw! Congrats.

I don't really make resolutions. My new year starts with the school year in August :) But I make a list of steps to take to achieve yearly goals and I maintained all that I could control (the economy and job market is out of my control evidently):D

I lost weight, quite unexpectedly, and when I wasnt even trying that hard to anymore. Glad it finally happened for me. But now I have to find a whole new resolution for next year!

I made the resolution to stop drinking bottled water in 2008 - and I actually did it! I can count on one hand the number of times I bought bottled water, so I was really proud of myself.
