New Year's Resolutions

In past years, I have made a weight loss resolution and that hasn't worked well, so I stopped making resolutions about weight. The end of 2012 a friend suggested we clean our homes one room at a time getting items out of our homes. I'll admit it sounded like a great idea and so far several boxes have left my house, so I'm reducing my home. I have a cleaner storage room and don't miss any of the items.
How are you doing on your resolutions or goals for the year? Are there any goals you would like to share and see if anyone else might like to join you in completing this year? I know this has helped me knowing there is another person there for support.

My one and foremost goal is to read more. Within that, read more classics, read more in English and read more plays :). I made a little challenge for myself, too, and I keep track of the books I've read on Goodreads... with this official challenge type of thing, I feel as if I'm gonna keep it well.

I do like Goodreads and should visit the site more often. I'm lucky to live near the library, so can walk there often. Its nice to be able to borrow a book and have so many to choose from each time. Our library is huge with more than one story, so I don't buy lots of books anymore saving me money.

Great goals and I know its hard work buying a house. We did it and I saved money every year to be able to have a house that we own, so now more rent. Hope your able to get married this year. Thanks for posting.

I also have weight loss program for this year and I can say I am happy with my achievement.
It takes a lot of determination to achieve our goal.
I can say that my old dress inspired me a lot and everyday I saw I am doing well.
I also clean a lot of stuff at home since the start of the year.

I agree it does take determination to achieve weight loss and keep it off. Its not easy when there are so many good looking foods that tempt me. Good luck and hope your able to achieve these goals.

I made a resolution this year to get healthier. In mind body and spirit. I don't have a specific weight loss goal, but I want to excercise more, and consume less calories. That should result in weight loss. I also plan to save more money, and get rid of our credit card debt. It isn't too much but I don't want to fall further behind.

Great choices and I hope to achieve several of them myself. I plan to sign up for the gym and go there to help achieve better health. Saving more money is a huge challenge and right now I am planning to grow more fruit and vegetables to lower my grocery bill. Thanks for posting.
