I have never been a New Year's Resolution kinda girl. Too many people choose this time of year to kick a bad habit, or start a new one. You tend to set unrealistic goals and end up dissapointed and no better off than when you started. It is great to be motivated this time of year, but don't let your "resolutions" consume your life. Set small goals for yourself... no more peanut m & m's at work, only one sugar in your coffee, take the stairs to your apartment instead of the elevator. These small goals will give you a sense of accomplishment everytime you resist a sugary temptation or stay on the treadmill for an extra 5 minutes. You will feel great knowing you are sticking to somthing. However small or silly it may seem, you are bettering yourself each time to stay true to your word. Every small accomplishment will boost the confidence in youself to reach a higher goal, like losing weight or running a marathon. So don't make a yearly resolution, reach your goals day by day and have a Happy & Healthy 2011!
