Tell us how you screwed up in 2009

[MrsCat 6]

I did not set clear boundaries with my in laws. that is about to change - in about 1 hour.

Yessssssssssssss! I must model Len in 13 days when MIL arrives.

As for me, I will no longer encourage my coworker to have afternoon trysts with the disc jockey and tell her to go home to her husband.

this sounds like an for a new thread..... NY resolutions you KNOW you will not keep...

i think i'll keep it for a while. i probably won't last the whole year though.

I wasted too much time on things that aren't very important, so I plan to do less of that. Not easy sometimes.

[Twisted K 2]

wasted the majority of my gym membership. that will change.

I gained 70 lbs with my pregnancy, 25 of which I still have left to lose and will in 2010.

It's a screw up only if you think it is.

That said, you can get all the big things right and still screw up something (relatively) small. I am sure you have something to tell.

I am going to re-start going to the gym on Monday. And this time I'll try not to work out right by the couch and TV.

I ran a red light last year and it was a combination of not paying attention and not wanting to wait for another light cycle.

I can't decide if I feel liberated by not doing Christmas, or cheap. I'll keep you posted

I just looked up my gym membership and glanced at the times I visited. I went over 130 times last year. Yay for me!

I think that the secret to going to the gym often, is finding an exercise program that you either really like (for me it's aquafit) or if you can't find something you like at least do something where you don't get bored. If you get bored, you focus too much on how long you have been on the machine and how long you have left and sooner or later you will quit. I have come to the conclusion that group classes are a good plan, although I do get a good work out on my own if I lap swim. I can't be bothered with weights machines and my bum goes numb on those stupid stationary bicycles and I would much rather go hiking than use a treadmill.

hmmmm... where to begin?

to start, i quit a well-paying job with super benefits just because i didn't like it and thought it was crappy... boy, was that stupid.

yeah i can't do stationary bicycles either, for a similar but different reason. i like the elliptical.

yes, i fear it's one of those screw-ups i'm bound to make again and again because i'm stupid, stubborn, and have a bad attitude.
