edited January 2017 in Motivation and Support
I have a list of resolutions to be done monthly for 2017. I am listing them here so I can check in once a month and confess or brag. Join me! (I have a separate group for daily/every other day, weekly, quarterly and annual)

1. Take progress pics, both clothed and not
2. No more minimum payments on vehicles or credit card, round up to at least the nearest 100.
3. Take my clerk to lunch
4. Mail an old fashioned letter to at least one person
5. Give my dogs a bath

These are mine, what are yours?

    I want to add a resolution.
    6. Plan an active day trip and invite MFP and Facebook Friends to join. I just posted my first one. Roller skating in Sand Springs on Saturday the 27th. I invited all my MFP friends in Oklahoma and will create an event on my Facebook tonight. Aside from staying active, I want to interact with live people. I spend all day on a computer at work, and play way too many video games. Time to lift my head up and actually talk to people face to face.
