A new year is on the way. Time to pack up the holiday decorations and get ready for a bash to welcome 2012. People will be making resolutions and hopefully many of them will be to adopt a vegan lifestyle. What better way to feed yourself with the information you need than to get a subscription to VegNews? To help out I’m giving away a one-year subscription to VegNews magazine. You don’t have to be making a resolution to go vegan to win but I would like to know what your 2012 resolution is.
VegNews is a bi-monthly manual to vegan living. Recipes, travel articles and news from the vegan point-of-view on politics, animal rights and shopping. No other publication covers the vegan lifestyle the way VegNews does. You need this magazine in your life and you’ll have a year of joyous reading for FREE! If you already have a subscription to VegNews and win you can use this to renew your existing subscription.

I want to try to be less insecure about myself and not to let my life be ruined by unfriendly and selfish people.
I resolve to volunteer my time more to help others. One of my goals is to run my first 5K for charity.
I retweeted your tweet @adthomas226.
Finally going to run a half marathon this year. Been talking about it since ’08 and now I’ma make it happen.
My primary resolution for 2012 is to “create” more: crafts, exciting recipes, repurposed household items, memorable occasions with friends (and so on). I hope to become especially proficient at making vegan baked goods 🙂
Oh man, VegNews has the greatest food porn! My resolution is to do a bunch of research and apply for arts grants to create & stage my first full-length theater production. Yikes!
My resolution for the new year is to DIY as much as possible. I’d like to try my hand at a bunch of new skills like welding, reupholstering, bread making, masterful sewing and fixing all sorts of things. Thank you!

My resolution is to no longer sweat the small stuff! I also retweeted you on twitter for an extra entry (@whitneycalk)!
Just passed one year eating vegan, now I resolve to eat less processed and packaged foods and more fresh fruits and vegetables.
I have 6 resolutions for 2012, but I’ll just post the first one here. You can read the rest on my blog!
1. Embrace a healthy lifestyle.
Diet: I recently read Food Rules by Michael Pollan, and it’s simplistic approach to food resonated with me. This year I will make a strong effort to eat mainly organic, sustainable, compassionate whole foods.
Exercise: Yoga and cardio workouts will happen several times a week. I walk to and from work every day. I also joined a Biggest Loser group with some friends so I will stay accountable to my diet and exercise goals.
My resolution is to really try to eat fewer processed, pre-packaged foods and just eat more whole foods. Sometimes it’s hard to do, even as a vegan.
My resolution: only go out to eat or pick up food twice a month. Saves money, is healthier, and I’m a good cook!

My resolution is to read more. 2011 found me slacking off a bit, and law school starts in August, so I must prepare!
I also resolve to write more letters in 2012. People still get a thrill whe they open a handwritten piece of mail, and I hope to bring some more joy to my friends and family!

Reduce my consumption of processed foods, especially those containing corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup! Also to drink more water and reignite my meditation practice.
My resolution/goal for this year is to follow Nike’s advice…JUST DO IT! I am not a col weather runner and I can’t afford all the gear, so I run on the treadmill at my local gym, aka the highschool. It gets repetitive, and boring but I LOVE to run! And I now how good I feel and acomplished after I run that 4-8 miles! It feels awesome and sometimes you just gotta do some things, and that’s one of them that are super important to me!

I vow: This magical year of 2012 will be the year when I move into creativity with my new-found vegan lifestyle. Cooking new recipes, and making new relationships within the local vegan community. A year of Fun with Food, Vegan-style.
To cook and bake my way through as many vegan cookbooks as I can. I want to make it all and stop relying on convenience foods.

Become balanced and physical peace.
My New Years resolution is to try to have as plant-based of a lifestyle as possible. And not to give up if I’m not perfect.
my goal for the year is try and do the most good and least harm.
this includes sticking to my new vegan lifestyle!
My resolutions are mostly health related – floss daily, resume drinking lots of water, ride my new bike more often, do yoga 3 times a week. Good stuff! Totally doable.
