If you made New Year's resolutions in 2007, how did you do with keeping it?

I had two last year. The first was working on our debt - which we did and are still doing so I kept the resolution to work on it.

I did not succeed on my second resolution which was to lose some more weight. :(

Aweful. My resolutions for '07 were to be more finacially stable (still working on that), quit smoking (yeah right), and spend more time with my friends.

Sigh...maybe this year. :)

No new babies for 2007 or 2008. So far we are on track. :D (after a baby in 2005 and twin babies in 2006, for the record.)

My 2007 resolution was to lose weight, and I lost 28 lbs between January and July.

No resolutions for 2008.

I always make a joke resolution to quit smoking every NYE, then promptly break it a half hour later. That's exactly what I did for my 2007 resolution.

Much to my utter shock and surprise, I quit smoking this year. So I guess I stuck to my resolution after all.

I can't remember how many times I've made a resolution to lose weight and failed miserably (i.e. putting on more). On New Years Eve 2006 I said no more. Once and for all I would keep it. I started Weight Watchers four weeks later and reached my goal weight in September. Since then I have lost a little more. 37 lbs in total. My resolution for this year will have to be to keep it off.

I didn't call them resolutions, but I did have three goals for 2007:

1) Lose 10-15 pounds and just get into a healthier lifestyle. I lost 15. And I've drastically reduced my soft-drink intake. Then...see #2.
2) Get pregnant. Mission accomplished in August!
3) Be more devoted to my quiet times with the Lord. I started out pretty well, and I do better with them when the weather's warmer and the days are longer; I can sit on the deck and do them with less risk of distraction. Now, I have good weeks and bad ones.

My goal for 2007 was to lose some weight. I did just that. :) I'm sad that I gained back about 10 between Thanksgiving and New Year's, but I made one heck of a dent into the old me. Still have more to lose, and I will.

My 07 Goals

To purchase a home (did this one!)
To develop and implement a permanent marketing plan for our business (totally missed this one)
To get Emerson evaluated and into a program to help him with his autism (yay!)
To help DH sell his house (Done!)
To get pregnant (well... it was an accident, but done!)
To have 3 months of living expenses in savings (was done, then undone with medical expenses and lawyers fees)
To write at least 3 people about how they impacted my life (done!)

There were a few more, psychological and business related ones. All told, I got 6 out of 10 done. Eh, oh well.
