I initially thought that I had none… just don’t want a repeat of last year. But have decided that I will, I really want 2011 to be a new start, so mine are:
walk the dogs twice a day
eat healthy and no more processed food
get a better work / life balance (I have learned that I don’t hold everything together and work goes on without me!)
loose weight - 2 STONE since surgery in Feb - come on!! At the moment really considering a gastric band!
and most important, not hiding having BC any more… I am starting 2011 proud with myself.

So you shud be 2010 was a hard year for you i didnt make a resolution this year maybe next year 2 late now i will have plenty of time to think about it now lol
How proud do you sound???
Wonderful strength there! I’m sure the lessons you’ve learnt through BC will assist you on your journey but you sound like a strong woman anyway.
Given the year you’ve had I do admire the NO to processed food!
I’ve decided that if I eat better quality chocolate and red wine from now on, I’m almost within my healthy eating plan!
Great success with your plans for 2011.
Keep up those ideas to have a healthier life/work balance.
Your family deserve a happy contented Marguerite!
And so do you!
Thanks Ladies… but I do have caveats… bread, red wine and cheese do not come under the category of processed food!
Surely there are more resolutions out there?
2010 was about dx and treatment. 2011 is about raising awareness in younger women about breast cancer and being breast aware. I have started this already by doing my facebook status new year awareness campaign which went brilliantly. I am sending breast check reminder facebook/text/email messages out every month this year. I am phoning my Chemo nurse, health visitor, gp and dentist thus week about putting posters on the back of the loo doors in their hospital/surgery/ childrens centre.
I am going to get fit, whilst raising awareness and cash. I’ve signed up to fo a 10k run in may. I hate running and the gym and aerobics etc and am a complete beginner!
I am going to strive to be happy and try not to dwell.
I’m going to meet up with as many of my bcc as I can as I can’t believe I am so close to them but have never met them.
Happy new year Marguerite,
good to hear from you and come and meet us again some time, salads all round
Work balance is one I am working on too. Balancing the scales yup count me in on that one

Well, yes I’m trying to eat healthier…
go to bed earlier…
manage to learn how to relax better…
love my true friends better…
throw away the ‘fairweather’ contacts I’ve accumulated…
manage my time keeping better…
swim more often…
look after my body better…
improve my teeth cleaning habits…
angst less…
AND GENERALLY BECOME MORE PERFECT IN 2011!
That should keep me busy!
And I’m going to try and find out how you put up a photo of yourself on the BCC profile…
