New Year\'s Resolutions, POG style
We'll see if this works. The idea is a new year's resolution game. In this thread post your resolution for 2007. Hopefully a bunch of people will do so. Then, I'll start another thread listing everyone's plans and then we'll turn it into a guessing game.
It would be preferable for people to list goals that work incrementally as well. Say you want to quit smoking gradually. You could say you want to be down to 5 cigarettes a day by Feb 1, and a couple a day by March 1 and so on. That way we could make guesses as we go as well as one long-term guess. We'll also guess at what point people fall off the wagon and admit to having given up. I'm in and will naturally have some sort of weight loss goal so as to limit Amplify's ability to make jokes at my expense. I need to think more specifically about it though. Feel free to post if you're going to be in but have nothing at the moment. |

Re: New Year\'s Resolutions, POG style
JaredL,
I currently weigh 228 down from 255 at 6 feet tall. My ultimate goal is less than 180. My immediate goal is to weigh 200 on April 1. Prop bets are in play. You might want to think about just getting down to 300 or so first and then reevaluating your goals [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I already quit smoking (one year anniversary is about today, I had one cigarette this year when I was drunk at my uncle's wake but that's it) and drinking (couple months ago, haven't even smelled booze since) and I'm exercising and meditating every day. My goals now apart from not dying of obesity are mostly financial, get my credit back into shape, make more money, and get a mortgage down payment together. I work largely on a commission basis which means that I have to self-motivate my cold-calling, which is one of the most difficult things in the universe to accomplish. I am moving into a new territory, Indianapolis, and my first goal is to get one client there. I also have a side business in computer repair and small business networking which has languished to the point where I only have one client. My goal there is to get at least one more solid client within Q1. amp |

Re: New Year\'s Resolutions, POG style
I generally tend to make a weight loss goal. I'm at about 205 right now, and would like to be about 180. I might instead try to keep to an exercise regiment goal, such as ITG/DDR 30 - 40 minutes, 4 - 5 times a week. I think it's probably better in my case to just try to make sure I keep excercising and not worry about a specific weight. And by the way, ITG/DDR is the best workout program ever.
last year I also made a poker goal ($10,000 income, which I came up a couple thousand short), but I've since cut my playing time way down, so I'll probably drop that one. so officially, my goal is: 175 minutes of ITG/DDR per week, spread over at least 4 days. Hopefully my blueshark pad comes soon [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] |
