I know it's totally cliche` to have started a diet/excersice program on January first- everyone expects you to fail before February. I kept my head down that first month so as not to be written off as a New Years flake, but now I'm proud to speak up and say I'm one of the 2015 New Years resolutioners who's still going strong! I've logged in every day since the first and lost 8.5 pounds so far. woot! So chime in everyone, I'm curious to know who else is beating the odds and sticking to the promise they made to themselves on New Years.

    Me too. It sounds kind of silly but it's motivating to me to see the "streak" counter increasing. :smiley:

    Still here from January 2013 actually, although I guess it wasn't a new year resolution for me as I only started on January 14 or something.

    I'm glad to see things are going well for you. Good job for sticking with your resolution.

    Well I guess I am one of them too. The end of December was spent stuffing my face and being lazy. I rededicated myself in January.

    I've always thought it's better for people to start a 'new year's resolution' in March though.. because the weather is better and theres more sunlight. I think you won't get discouraged as quickly as starting January 1st.

    I thought it was funny how many friend requests I got from newbie resolutioners a month or two ago. But it's been nice to have new faces on my page, and people motivated and active on here! I've been on here since last May, but I congratulate anybody still here from January!

    It took me a few weeks to get back into logging but a month or two to keep up the habit! 230 days in. You all can do it!

    I'm still here. Lost 16 pounds so far with the help of MFP (31 day streak!) and I haven't touched a cigarette since December 31, 2014 either. :smile:

    Still here...

    Could use a few more friends though, seems quite a few have disappeared over the years.
