What are your 2013 New Year resolutions?

[TonyEnjoyD]

Get running again, get under 13st and ride more.
The former will help the latter

2013 will be my first year as a diabetic (was diagnosed with type 2 a week before Xmas). I admit that I have ignored all diet considerations this festive season, so for 2013 I wish to:
Get diabetes under good control
Keep it under good control
Lose at least 1 stone

I've lost all the weight I need to so mine is to keep it healthy, keep it lean. Lots are trying to get me into road racing, but I'm not sure family commitments will allow that this year. My mileage target will be 5000 miles this year.

But my main resolution will be to be the best dad I can be to my baby daughter who will arrive in the next 4-5 weeks!

I never do New Year Resolutions.

So that's your resolution!

I am 12st 4lb now which is not bad at my age (52)..

Age Adjusted - cracking idea! I'm 11/52 older but only 13/172 heavier, so it's looking good.....

See my mum more, apart from that i do everything right.

1. Not to place my hands round my bosses neck and squeeze his head off. Gets harder each year.

2. Work harder in the gym and with my diet. Another 10kg of lean mass would be nice but 5 is a more realistic goal for a year.

3. Spend more time with family.

4. Read more. Books, not Razzle.

5. Save more money.

I've never really seen the point of this tradition of putting off making a decision until some arbitrary point in the calendar. Out of curiosity, how long do these procrastinated decisions typically last into the year?

 

[Drago]

About 3 days.

I'm a bit busy at the moment. I'll dig out my old diaries next August and work out the answer then!

 

[JtB]

I can make resolutions that last 3 days any day of the year :-p

It's a convenient point to draw a line under one's excesses and to start afresh but to keep you happy and break with tradition I'll use February 17th.

The Christmas break gives most of us a week to10 days without the usual pressures of life and this is a good time to step back from the everyday routine and take stock of your life and perhaps what has happened over the past year.
That may then lead to a bit of stock take and decisions to change direction.

How long things last perhaps depend on the thing; if it is a lifelong decision (stop smoking) or a single aim (find a significant other).

I think it is not that the decision waits for new year, but that we turn out thoughts to a review process at this time.
