Happy (almost) New Year's, everyone! I don't know about you gals, but I'm hoping some medical researcher out there is making a NYE resolution to come up with better treatment for Fibro! (Or I guess if we are wishing, we can wish big and hope for a cure!)

But assuming that the cure scenario is unlikely, my NYE resolution is to eat healthier - esp. cutting down on the sugar - to help manage symptoms. In line with that, I want to be more efficient with my exercise regime so that when I feel well enough to exercise, it will be more effective.

Does anyone else have any New Year's resolutions (fibro related or otherwise)?

*hugs*

My resolution is to keep the personal drama level in my life at a minimum. Interpersonal drama is such a stressor, makes me flare; so drama free in 2013!

And I will pace myself better with activity and rest.

I don't do resolutions but I have made a promise to myself to take my supplements every day instead of just whenever I happen to think of it. I've put it in my calendar every day so I get an alarm just like with my medication.

Going to find a way to get more exercise as well - when you can't walk for exercise it's hard in cold weather. I love my bicycle, but 50 degrees at 10-15 mph is freakin' cold! LOL

Happy New Year!

I actually got on here to see what other's new year's resolutions are, as I did not ever think of one. LOL

My resolution is to get on meds to help control my FMS, and hopefully get back to running again -- I miss it. Also, I want to continue my education to help make my future brighter. I also want to make sure I don't settle for less than I deserve. I want to find my path for peace, happiness, love, and spiritual progression.

I have decided to be more pro active in getting the understanding of Fibro out there. So many problems I believe with me, stem from family and friends not listening, and educating themselves about it, so therefore they don't understand it, or want to, I also am going to live mmore for God and help others someway when I am able. I need to also get ahold of my finances, and weight issues if i can. Not saying I can do it, but I am going to give it my best shot. And like most here, the personal drama is going to stop. Our bodies cannot take it anymore, makes us worse, and some people are just drama queens! lol

Hey Yellow..
I like your resolutions along with what others mentioned too.

I for one do not wait for New Years or others (I grew up catholic so Lent was always a big one). Instead I just make a decision and start it. LOL, maybe I get this from after surviving my second "end of the world" escapade.

I do however like to set goals. Things I want to accomplish. I do this often too.

I have a few cooking goals,
a few spiritual goals
and a few common goals for my family and such.

So with that being said, I want to wish you and everyone else a wonderful, successful, and happiest 2013!
