OT New Year’s Resolutions for 2009 - Page 2

I thought I'd give up sarcasm. You have no idea how hard that is! I'm pretty much doomed to fail though. I'll have a better chance of success if I just go on a diet!

And Miss Beeb, such a wonderful fact, muscle does SOOO weigh more that fat, thank goodness for that.

Missbeeb - Im with you on the weight loss front.

Strangely enough I only seem to lose any weight if I do low carb or atkins style diets so as of tomorrow its bye bye pasta, bread and all the other yummy things oh and coffee!  Watch me got through withdrawl   Mind you in about 5 days I'll feel sooo much better and will have twice the energy so it will be worth it.

I'm hoping to take my Cardi Corgi to Crufts and seeing as that will involve dressing up nicer than I do for GSDs I guess its a good date to aim for.

As a family we have also set a resolution to only eat locally produced meat and veg and to try and grow as much veg and fruit as possible - two reasons 1 its so much nicer and 2 I know it hasnt been shipped thousands of miles.

Hi Liebe, Happy New Year!

The Atkins diet worked well for me when I tried it BUT... OMG, my breath????  I couldn't stand it.  I think the book mentioned it and said it was due to burning keytones... something like that.  The chemical warfare dept could have hired me... I can't go there again! LOL

Best of luck at Crufts with your Corgi.  Cardigans are the ones with tails right?  There's one (blue merle) near me, he's been deaf all his life, he's a lovely old chap... mine always have a "chat" with him.

4pack, you get to sleep in until 5:00????????  I'm half way to work by then. 

I don't think the speed limit one would work for me.....  I have a lead foot, it's amazing how "sporty" a Dodge Grand Caravan can be.  LOL

Hey cut me some slack, I don't even commute and have to get up that early. I may as well live on a damn farm! I also had to extend my hours to keep some kids, some days I work from 5am-9pm. Sucks but you don't turn away work when you need to pay the bills and feed the animules. LOL Being strapped inside  the house, these stupid forums are my only link to the outside world most days. It's no secret why my ass expanded.

My News Years resolution for 2009 is to be just myself

Boring it may be but thats it

Weight loss= 11 months 2 weeks to lose what I have gained in the 2 weeks of Holiday eating...

Missbeeb

I've never had a breath issue with Atkins - maybe it doesnt go that far for me - but within 7 days I'll have much more energy from not eating wheat based products.

Yes the Cardi's have tails, but remember that there is no docking now.  The Pembs tail is normally carried upwards like the spitz and the Cardi's are generally down and not so curly.  Have to say the Cardi is much nicer in temperment than the Pemb and is quite a clown by nature, sadly they are declining in numbers and over the last few years there have been less than 100 puppies born in the uk per year.

Karmen - I like your theory for weight loss, unfortunately I need to lose way more than the christmas spread - didnt get one this year - its more like a decade of spread!

herbal shops sell a drug that works...............stackers.................they work
