New Year's resolution?
 
Have you got one?
I gained 15 lbs this year because I quit smoking in March. So, my resolution is to get back down to 110 lbs. I bought an ipod nano so that I can exercise without waking up my boyfriend, and I am going on a wheat and dairy free diet. I have promised myself that if I get down to that weight that I will by myself some new clothes.

Stop smoking and be more organised.

Draw more. And get my thesis and it's publication done as soon as possible.

I quit cold turkey while eating a bunch of candy, which explains my weight gain. However, I can breathe way better now. You will feel much better physically after you quit, but it's really hard to kick nicotine. In fact it is supposed to be harder to quit than heroin.

I'm a chocolate fiend, so am a little worried about giving up! I stopped for a whole summer two years ago and I felt much better, but old habits die hard. *sighs* I was weak.

Nah. It's not the same. I miss the action, as well - I fidget anyway, and once I start wanting a cigarette my hands literally start twitching. It's not pretty.

I actually had some tremors and stomache aches when I quit. I would buy Dum Dum lollipops and constantly eat them.

When I quit before, I started sucking my thumb. Like, all the time - I'd be on the bus, and I'd realise I was doing it. Pathetic, really.

Wise Child 12-19-2005 01:02 PM

I've been smoking since I was thirteen, and smoking every day since I was fifteen. Now I wish I'd listened to all the older smokers who warned me not to start!

This whole new year's resolution thing really bothers me. Why do people need to associate the things they want to get done with the new year? If you want to do something, just fucking do it and don't worry about what year it is.

That being said, I'd like to be able to check at least one item off my to-do-before-I-die list next year. But unlike some people, who need a new year to be able to get things done, I'm constantly working on that.

It's actually easier setting a specific date to accomplish something.I guess all of us can't be perfect like you. You sound really cranky. Go eat a cookie.

I just made cookies last night! For people at work though, my fat-ass doesn't NEED more cookies...

I am going to lose some weight and tone up to get more healthy. Also I am going to write at least one song each day, after my schoolwork.

:D

ummm....my new year's resolution would be.... to get pregnant (I have problems to have children) so I did quit the birth control pill 1 week ago... and I'm hopping to get pregnant before june :)

Wise Child 12-19-2005 02:41 PM

Good luck!

I hope to get a job, and get my depression sorted out (I've had it for a few years now), start organising the wedding instead of talking about it and doing nothing. Good luck with quiting smoking. I quit this summer, it isn't easy but you feel great when the stuff is out of your system. I got headaches and felt sick when I first quit.

Wise Child 12-19-2005 03:00 PM

That sucks. [the depression] My mum gets it something awful. But having a wedding to look forward to will probably help.

anti 12-19-2005 03:06 PM

No thanks, I hate cookies.

But really, I'm not cranky! Honest!

My resolution is to lose weight. Im not saying how much ;)
Also to paint more. I've been told there is a market for my work so I'm going to see if I can sell some.
