  • To plan my lunches everyday so I don't buy rubbish. To stop snacking on junk while I'm working just becausr I'm bored. To get a fitness programme going again, mainly dancing twice a week and cardio 3 times. To do a second round of Insanity from Jan. Most importantly to stop binge eating at night. It's not good.

    to sort out all this new years resolution/after christmas stuff after I move house, start my full-time job (first one in my entire life!) and get into a routine with my 4 year old son and my partner and our long-distance relationship that is a result of my job and move :(
    I guess I will use exercise as a distraction from being away from my man... but I also have to return to study as part of this job some its going to be a balancing act... I do however promise to buy myself a pole out of my first months pay because Im also moving away from my pole dancing class and I have learned a few tricks that I need to keep practising!!! plus I love pole xx

    It's not 'after Christmas' I'm worried about - my current aim is to enjoy a very glutinous Christmas meal, but not let it go too far after that.
    Also hoping to walk up a mountain (ok, only JUST a mountain - be a few hour's walk) in the morning to get some calories burnt in preparation. Indoor rock climbing the day before and after.

    All too often I let one day with lots of food and no exercise turn in to a week of the same.

    To keep up with the promise I made back on Feb 8th this year.... to workout every day, rain hail or shine.

    Why make a promise AFTER xmas? Why not make it now? It's not xmas yet & places are still open.

    To get more sleep!

    Not after Christmas though, after tonight. I've been staying up way too late these past couple of weeks.

    After Christmas, I promise to work out at least 4 times a week, keep eating healthily, try and forgive myself for any relapses, and reach my target weight of 133lbs by the time I go to Italy for a week in May for a series of photoshoots. I want to look damn good in a bikini for the first time in my life.

    Why wait for some arbitrary time frame? That's like saying "I'll start on Monday." I'm doing what I need to do now, and fitting Christmas into my plan.

    To recover from pregnancy/childbirth. (I'm gonna pop *any minute*. :laugh: )
    Then go back to what I was doing. Martial arts and weights. I am soooo missing my heart-pounding, sweat-pouring workouts right now.

    Going back to logging, etc. :) I'm 'on vacation' until Wednesday and fully enjoying myself.
