    Maybe this seems lame... but ... my resolution is to go to bed by 10:30-11:00 5/7 nights a week. If I do what I need to do to make that happen I feel like I will be a much less stressed person.

    Get back to the weight I was at a few years ago when I first started MFP
    Try to get over a "1 day Streak" for logging
    Drink less booze - the biggest reason that I've gained so much weight
    Get organized at home again (meal planning, and keeping the house tidy etc)
    Yell less at my kids

    Thank you! Yes, I feel like I will function better. It's crazy what I'm going to have to change to make that happen - I'll actually have to get my fiancé to agree to "let" me go home from things (we both like socializing and he likely doesn't have the same resolution haha. We also carpool - hence why I say "let"), I'll have to turn down invitations to things... turn off the TV, even if it's in the middle of a show... etc. Could be anything!

    I hate the term resolution...I usually try to focus on a yearly 'theme'. 2014 was about the power of positivity. Not letting little things bring me down, finding my happy and realizing I can do anything I try. With that mentality I got a new job I love, a new car I love even more, completed two half marathons, went on vacation 3 times, donated more to charity, saw two of my gorgeous friends get married, and while I only lost 11 lbs I'm perfectly happy that I'll never see those 11 again.
    2015 is about relationships...ending toxic ones, putting energy into the ones that make me a better person, and realizing when someone isn't out for my best interests. Wish me luck lol.

    Fitness wise...some goals:

    - Lose at least 50 lbs
    - Complete two half marathons, an 8K, and a 10K. Get the half marathon time sub 2 hrs.
    - Begin training by Q4 for a full marathon for 2016
    - Cut out ALL fast food, even the sort of fast foods
    - Go to the gym at least 3 days a week and/or outdoor run 3 days a week
    - Start a backyard garden and grow more of my own vegetables
    - Don't take having one bad food day as an excuse to eat garbage for a week. Every day is a new day.
    - Finish unpacking my house and keep it organized, avoid clutter!
    - Read more, watch less TV

    I don't like to call it a resolution, because I try and make one every year and never succeed. So my goals for 2015 are:

    Lose 67 pounds by the end of the year
    Run 2 5K's - Color Run and Disneyland 5K
    Fit into my size 8's - which I haven't in over 3 years
    Read more
    Train for a marathon
    Spend less, save more
    Be happy with not only myself, but my body. :smiley:

    I always make resolutions, never stick with them. But I am a little more determined this year, and will have a little extra free time.

    - finish school (Bachelors in Accounting in August :smile: )
    - Go to gym 5x a week.
    - Subsequently, run 10 miles a week (not much for some, but a lot for me)
    - Reach 180 by June (30 lbs)
    - Ultimately reach 170.
    - Run a few 5ks, maybe ramp up to a 10k?
    - Cut out eating in bed altogether. Horrible, I know.
    - Less crap eating.
