Alright everyone, time to anti up. Lets here your New Years resolution.

Mine, to finish my schooling, and to get back into shape. This desk job has been a killer to my 32 inch waste line.

And oh yeah, I plan on converting ChefTalk to a database driven site. :D.....

Thanks,

I had a 32" waist once. I think I was 9!
At weddings, my Aunts would poke me in the ribs and cackle "You're next!". They stopped when I started doing the same to them at funerals.

Kylew before I went back to school I was in the kitchen and in the gym. I worked out about 1 1/2 a day and I kept a 32 inch waste line until I was about 29. Now I have a tire around my waste like everyone else.


Melina, database driven is a good thing, a tech thing, but a good thing... Good to see you in the Cafe I was wondering where you have been. If you go back to Greece will you live in Athens?

Thanks,

Thanks for asking!

I am in Athens for 20 days now! And yes! I will live in Athens not in Santorini ;)

Lose weight, sure. More than that, I'll be happy to keep the lipids down!

Momo, I drive like you do, but I have no interest in toning it down! :p It's the only overt aggression I allow myself.

I would like to lose my fear of rejection and once again take up the battle to get my manuscript published. So far, it's been rejected by some of the top literary agents in the country.

Finally: get to Italy this summer. Failing that, to the Chef Talk Get-together in Montreal and also spend some time in NYC.

Happy New Year, everyone!

This year was a recovery year for me so for this coming year I would like to continue my excercising and skating. I still have a minimum of 10lbs to lose. After that I would lkike to continue and if possible get back down to my early 20's weight (like that'll happen!)
Also to continue my brain recovery and possibly overcome and use it to forget my past inabilities and use that to forge new abilities and get some things accomplished. I have several ideas and inventions if you will, that I still want to get done.
And last but certainly not least, to buy a home!!!!

My latest musical venture!

I resolve to slow down. I don't even know if I remember how to do one thing at a time. Multi-tasking is evil.

I resolve to not fly off the handle so quickly (and often)!!! :(
I have a temper...like all good chefs!!


Nicko: That chair of yours won't help any...maybe you could send it to me...! I'll take good care of it :lol:

Risa: You impress me, I shall do the same and look great for the Montreal Cheftalk Reunion...but then, I won't need your chair Nicko...

KyleW: You are very likable, no matter what your waistline is!!

Mezzaluna: You better show up at the next Montreal Reunion, for fear of rejection!

Jim: I wish hubby resolved your number 9 resolution...maybe I will send him on Cheftalk tonight ;) ;)

James: I will hold you to YOUR resolution!!! I PROMISE!!!


P.S.: Oh and I almost forgot this last resolution: I will post another 2000 this year, I ga-ron-tee!

I'm not all the way sure myself

---Kyle W---

Well, obviously being a teenage girl has its advantages... not having to work for a living... never having to pay full price when out to eat being served by a young guy... etc. But there's a lot of weird things you wouldn't want to deal with... it's always different for girls in high school than it is for guys... (you gals know what I'm talkin about) Odd double standards. And trust me, the second my waist got bigger than it was people noticed. And they're none to shy about pointing it out. It's no fun having someone tell you that its nice to know even people they "thought" were "perfect" have fat times too... yeah thanks. Who wants to hear that... So, take what you will from this but I'd rather be a guy out of high school any day than stuck where I am. ---april---
ps at least on you own you can look in the mirror and think youre looking kinda chubby and be fine with it...

So, how long does anyone reckon these resolutions are going to last?
my resolution: Not to go to back to London this year.

Remember this motto to live by: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO...

Resolutions? Ha!!

I never make resolutions because I never keep them. But right now (this very minute) I am drinking a lot of water because I haven't been and I should. :rolleyes:

I also keep the aggression in my driving. Two reasons- I don't have other chances to listen to heavy metal, and otherwise I would be driving in the emergency lane attempting to get in when there weren't any cars. ;)

And when I say listening to heavy metal, I mean with the window rolled down. Sometimes I even flip people off. *GASP!!*

They always deserve it too. Wouldn't my Mother be shocked. :rolleyes:

Okay, maybe I should make a new year's resolution not to exaggerate quite so much....

Re: I'm not all the way sure myself

April, what YOU think is what counts!! Anyone who tells you you're having a 'fat day' is not worth paying attention to.

You just eat right and exercise until you feel HEALTHY, not when your waist measurements are what people tell you they "should" be...

;)


PS: my NY resolution is not to make any resolutions. There's only one way to look and that's UP!! :bounce:
