Default New Years Resolutions, Let's here 'em.
As the New Year is closing in, I thought it might be good for everyone to share there New Year resolutions.

Let's get the ball rolling with mine.

1. Get in shape. Like really in shape, running everyday.

2. Eat healthier and stop eating junk food. Hopefully cut it out completely.

3. Save! I want to put a deposit on a house by the end of next year.

That's it for me. Not much but hopefully it all works out...

Mine would be the usual lose weight. I have a heart op in Jan and have promised my family I will make an effort to lose weight after. I can't do any excercise at the moment.

Would also be save money and stop buying models.

well because my previous New Year's Resolutions were so successful, in 2011, god willing ofcourse.....

I plan to drink more, at least 6 times a year, more cigars, at least one a day, i plan to eat more food, possibly 3 times per day, i will only do gymwork 3 times per week, walk the dogs daily, spend more money on car mods and that's about it really.

those are my new year's revolutions as I like to call them, and I am serious about them too!

These are pretty well mine too however I already have the house - I do want to look seriously at selling it and building one on some land in 2011 though. I also have an engagement party and a wedding to pay for too :

Yeah these are pretty much mine too. Standard new years resolution fare really.

I already exercise regularly so mine is mainly improve the diet and lose the weight. I've already set a goal of 10kg by easter. But then I made the same resolution last year and I'm still pretty much the same size as this time last year

I've already started the house deposit so I'll be looking to buy about mid year all things going well.
