Top New Year's Resolutions in 2011: Lose Debt and Lose Weight

An Australian survey recently revealed that the country’s top New Year’s resolutions in 2011 are to shed weight and debt . Those aren’t uncommon goals among people we know, either; in fact, the list of top resolutions in Australia looks a lot like our own (except when they resolve to get fit, they can actually head outside while we’re stuck avoiding the snow).

Here are Australia’s most popular New Year’s resolutions for 2011:

• 60% resolve to lose weight
• 51% are thinking green; planning to install energy-efficient light bulbs
• 31% want to close their credit cards and resolve debt
• 28% promise to quit smoking
• 27% want to stop spending time on Facebook and Twitter
• 21% are aiming to buy their first homes
