I usually don't make resolutions anymore instead I make "goals". Like this year I am making goals of: getting a new better paying job, be a great mom and not judge myself, make more time for myself, and start to save money so we can eventually move.
I want to give blood regularly and get on the bone marrow donation registry. I went and got all ktfu the last time I made those resolutions, so maybe this year I will actually do it.
Since dd was born it has been harder to do the sweet little things I used to do for dh all the time. This year, I'd like to do more of those little things that let him know how much I love him.
I'm going to finally get rid of this gosh dang baby weight!
Those last few pounds are the hardest to lose! Of course it would be hard if, like me, you think they would just fall off without having to change any eating or workout habits.
My two main goals is to lose this weight and start eating clean(er) and DH and I are both going to work on being more fiscally responsible and getting rid of some debts we've accumulated over the last few months.
Side note, DH made it his resolution last year to lose weight and get healthy after getting up to his highest weight ever and having some blood pressure issues. He went from to 260s to the 170's in a year. If I could only must a percentage of his determination and discipline I could do this too! (although probably not since guys SUCK and can drop weight so fast!)

I love this resolution! I think giving blood is a wonderful way to help others. My office has blood drives every 8 weeks, it makes remembering to give blood so easy.
To eat clean, workout, cook at home more, and not eat chips for a few months. I have a weakness for chips. Also to live in the moment and not get caught up in what I need to do next.
1. No soda all year (I only drink it once every 2/3 months as is, so I'm challenging myself to stop completely) 2. Sweets only for special occasions, like a celebration, not just a Tuesday or something 3. Get MH into better shape (I do 100%of the cooking and grocery shopping, so I have a big influence on this) 4. Stealing from @Snowboarderbritt, send cards for birthdays and special events!
ETA: I also wants to make the "one touch rule" a habit

What is the "one touch rule"?
When putting things away, the goal is to touch them once. So, say you come home and drop the coat on the couch. Then when you want to sit on the couch, you move the coat to a chair. Then you need to use the chair, so you finally hang your coat in the closet. You've touched that coast three times now. If you hang it in the closet from the start, you touch it once. Does that make sense?
My resolutions are: Be myself, not to let anyone try & change me, to spend as much time with those I love most, and to also send birthday cards out to friends & family. I promise I didn't steal that from you @Snowboarderbritt
I started Whole30 again today, I'm looking forward to shedding a few pounds and feeling overall just better about myself. I did the program in May and lost 15lbs!
