Transcript:
Roger: Do we have any rice cakes? Andy: I don't think so. What for? Roger: I need to lose weight for my New Year's resolution. Andy: I can pick some up next time I go to the store. Roger: Nah, I'll just drive over and get some now. Andy: It's December 30th, the New Year doesn't start for two more days. What's the hurry? Roger: I'm talking about the resolution I made for THIS year. I need to lose 15 pounds by tomorrow. Andy: Roger, relax. We all come up short on these things now and then. It's not a big deal. Roger: Not a big deal?! A resolution is a pledge! Maybe you don't, but I take my pledges very, very seriously! Andy: By the way, I thought your resolution was to lose 5 pounds, not 15. Roger: Turns out I've gained 10. Andy: How very, very, very sad.

If he wants to lose 15 pounds in two days, there better be some listeria in those rice cakes.

He sure takes his pledges seriously since he waits till now to even consider them. I was sure she’d say, ’Rice cakes? Just eat my tofu."

for most of us, resolutions are flexible goals that we fail at.

the stupid flu has knocked about 10 lbs off me in so many days. of course more than half that the holiday extra that would’ve come off quickly anyway. this weight loss plan not for the weak, or the smart…… i certainly would have avoided it given the choice.

I actually kept my resolution this year to lose weight and I am pretty happy. For 2013 it will be to keep it off.

I resolve to make no resolutions. Darn, I blew it already. Now that we have that out of the way we can move on to more important issues.
