ReplyDeleteCongrats to all the winners!
I, too, will be losing weight, by watching what I eat (less carbs, more veggies) and exercising (longer walks with hand weights). I just need to lose 5 to 10 pounds, weight that I accumulated since I tore a muscle in my leg this summer (and then eating my mother's cooking during the holidays).
Happy New Year. Always looking to eat healthier and be more active.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all the winners! Great resolutions, Kim. In past 2 years I have lost ~35 pounds & now I am at my perfect weight. The most important is to eat healthy, not to diet & replace usual snacks with vegetables & fruits.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and big congrats to all winners!
ReplyDeleteI definitely want to loose weight, because I gained a lot of pounds again due to the darned medicine I have to take at the moment. Would be okay if it worked, but it isn't so. So I gain weight but no health improvement:(
Congrats to the winners. I am climbing on the same wagon with you on losing weight.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to all!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners!
Weight loss for me is a never ending battle, but I find it's more of a lifestyle change. So I resolve to move (exercise) more. And I hate to exercise. UGH! So whatever it may take, that's my resolution - to move it, move it!
Congrats to all the winners and Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and congrats to the winners!
ReplyDeleteI too would like to lose weight for RT. *grin* Yes I'll be there this time.
I'm with you, Kim. I'd love to lose weight. My new resolution is to actively move my body in some form of exercise at least twice a week. I'm probably going to try a yoga class once or twice a week.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, winners.
ReplyDeleteIs there anyone that doesn't need to lose some weight (sigh). Eating yogurt for breakfast helps keep me full until dinner. I should probably have one before dinner though lol. I need to get to my clutter. My husband promised to build me some shelves if I did (easier said than done but great incentive).
Congrats to the winners and Happy 2012 to all!
ReplyDeleteI'm on the lose weight wagon too Kim. I need to exercise more often and eat more fruits and veggies. I also need to write more.
I don't make resolutions anymore. I don't see the point in making a resolution for a goal I know I won't keep. lol I stopped the whole dieting thing years ago and decided just to be happy with what I have...I always liked that bumper sticker that said...I didn't climb to the top of the food chain to eat salad. lol
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to all the winners.
Happy New Year to everyone.
ReplyDeleteI don't make resolutions, never did.
Congrats to all the winners this week.
Kim -
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled I won the Highgrove Calendar! The end of the year has been so hectic that I hadn't picked up a 2012 calendar yet so the timing is perfect!
Best wishes to you and your family for a wonderful New Year!
Yay, thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy New Year and may all out resolutions hold!!
Happy New Year Kim!
ReplyDeleteMy New Year's resolution is to loose weight, exercise more and to keep track of all of the books I've actually read through the year. I've done a horrible job keeping track this last year so I don't know if I read as much in 2011 as I did in 2010 and my goal is to read more each year...lol
Thanks for the giveaway!
Wtg, winners!
ReplyDeleteI don't make resolutions.
I do a lot of walking to lose weight.
Happy New Year!!!! Many blessings and best wishes for 2012.
ReplyDeleteCongrats winners!!!!!
I don't really do resolutions but I've decided to make some changes ;) There's a difference, small, but it keeps me from slacking off. 1) I will not work as much and spend more time with friends, and loved ones. 2) I will make time to read!!! and I will not buy any more books until I reduce my TBR pile (physical and electronic) by half. I'm gonna accomplish these goals! :)
Happy New Year, congrat's to the winners
ReplyDeleteI don't do resolutions I always fail ( na willpower ) I do want to get healthy reduce some poundage In take more fiber Drink More Water smaller portion's.
I am going to take a Zumba Class My Darling niece is hooking me up ....
Have a good one Lasses Ann/alba
Wtg ,thanks very much more sleep lol,
ReplyDeleteKimh
Happy New Year, everyone! Congratulations to all the winners, too.
ReplyDeleteThe only resolution I'm making is to have as much fun as I can in 2012.
I will be following my daughter's 'diet' (which addresses her food allergies and is also anti-inflamatory - she's got mild arthritis in one of her knees) as a means of showing support.
It's going to be a great year!
Happy New Year everyone!
ReplyDeleteI'm resolution is to 1) lay off the sugar and 2) spend less time on the internet, just to name a few.
Sorry, that should have read 'My resolution...', not 'I'm'!
ReplyDeleteI never have done New Years Resoulutions! I might try to make one by losing weight though but I already blew it this year by drinking two glasses of eggnog! LOL! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI don't make New Year resolutions. I have in the past, only to break them & then feel bad.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all the winners!
ReplyDeleteI really don't make New Year resolutions. However, I do try to eat right. I'm a vegetarian. I also try to exercise. I've started going to exercise and yoga classes.
I'm also making an effort to organize my books so it is easier to find the ones I want.
Hoping to loose that 10 lbs again in 2012. lol
ReplyDeleteEat fresh fruits, veggies and fiber to really help in the diet. I love crush pineapple (with out extra sugar and syrup), grated carrots and chopped almonds to get my sweet fix. Also watch your salt. Look at ingredients and be amazed at the salt in prepared foods. Of course sweets only when you are dying..lol..then only 1 or 2 cookies as a special treat.
Congrats to all the winners.

ReplyDeleteOne of my resolutions would be to eat healthy and continue with moderate exercises.
