New Year Resolutions 2008

Time to make new year resolutions again!

1. Number 1 priority: Exercise.
i need to get my fat butt off the couch and start exercising!!
Aim is to exercise at least once a week (first).
My target is to exercise at least 2 times a week by end of 2008!!
(And lose about 3 KG by the end of 2008 hopefully)

2. Adopt a stricter face care regime.
I will put moisturizer on my face before i sleep.
I will remove my makeup properly if i put it on.
I will do my face mask at least once a week.
I will continue to slap on sun block every day.

3. Buy insurance for myself.
I will buy myself insurance before end of 2008.
Ok, that said, no need to introduce any zealous insurance agents for me k.

4. Eat more veggies, fruits, and less red meat (especially beef)
I will eat veggies and fruits everyday.
Everyday...
I must quit eating bloody beef and other fatty red meat.
No more beef, no more lamb chops, no more fried chicken.
Dont tempt me to eat anymore sukiyaki or tenderloins/ ribeyes!!

5. Cut down on visiting restaurants.
7% GST and 10% Service Charge is damn a lot.
Imagine the amount of money we can save!
From now on.. i only want to go to restaurants that doesnt charge me service charges.
Like err... fast food restaurants?
Call me kiam siap, but charging 17% more on top of the food is crazy!!

6. Eat at home more often. Reduce eating fast food/ outside food.
Hey this resolution ties in nicely with (5).
Mum's home cooked food has less MSG= healthy!
will try to ask her to cook more steamed food... healthy healthy healthy!
Can also save money by eating at home.
(BTW, i got contribute to household expenses one ok.. 1/3 of my salary goes to my parents!)

7. Stop giving in to temptations to take TAXIs.
i will not take cab even if i am somewhere far away from home.
i will not take cab even if it is late at night. (unless there is no more cheaper alternate public transport)
i will not take cab even if i am dead tired.
i will not take cab even if i have 101 shopping bags to carry.
i will not take cabs!!! (Unless i can claim from company la)
This is gonna be one hard resolution to keep to.

8. Curb Credit Card spending.
i will keep track of the amount spent on my credit cards each month.
i will keep to using one credit card.
i will not be tempted by the SALE word.
i will resist MANGO SALES.
i will resist ISETAN PRIVATE SALES.
Need to reduce my expenditure!!

OK 8 is a nice lucky number.
So i shall stop here, even though i have more resolutions to keep to.
In 2008, i will keep to these lucky 8 resolutions.
And if u are my friend, please encourage me to keep to them ok?? :) :)

Motto for 2008: Eat healthy, Live healthy!
(and lose weight hopefully)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year folks!
