New Years Resolutions 2025
This may have been done in previous years but I need a marker for my resolutions.
1) to lose 3 stone by Christmas.
I have signed up the NHS path to type 2 diabetes remission and it's a years program.
2) to improve my woeful scrabble rating (currently 122 has been 141) by 10 points minimum
3) to break my Co Event duck.
I have entered before but due to circumstances beyond my control have pulled out.
Hopefully Co London
4) To finally get round to making a Will
I'm nearly 62 , so it's about time

I've hit the 4 stone lost mark.Marc Meakin wrote: Tue Jan 21, 2025 7:47 pm Lost a stone already.... I might have to ammend my weight loss goal to 4 stone

Ive got 2 weeks to go at 800 calories before i can eat proper food again
BMI suggests I've still got a stone or 2 to go
I will be happy with 10 more pounds to be honest putting me on the outer limits of a green BMI.
As for my climb up the Scrabble ratings , still only 3 ratings points ,but I have 9 months to get in the 130s

Re: New Years Resolutions 2025
This is good work. I'm hoping to be retired from driving by the time I reach your age.
